didn't Nintendo say that 75 third party games for wii sold one million or over?

Those are shipped games:

But Iwata argued that the Wii has been great for third-party publishers. He noted that 75 non-Nintendo games from seven publishers have sold more than a million units on the Wii. He also said that non-Nintendo publishers have sold more than 90 percent of the downloadable WiiWare titles on the Wii.

yeah he said that at GDC, and like the quote above says - he said sold

Read my post above.

Consider who a company like Nintendo sells to.  Is it you and me or a retailer?   That is why "sold" when spoken by a manufacturer means "shipped" to us.
