Hmm, though wouldn't they say shipped then?

No they wouldn't. This is from Nintendo's end of year accounts, and a sale for Nintendo (when the money hits their accounts) is a sale to a retailer or distributor, not to us.

What we think of as sales is sales to real people. That's sales made *by* retailers and distributors.

 

 

 

 

Fair enough, Im just recalling past reports where Nintendo has directly said "shipped" vs "sold through".
