Joystiq is reporting 1.1 mill SOLD for Bayonetta is Q3 ending 12/31, and thus would be Japan Only. So, either SEGA is lying or VGChartz estimates of around 250,000 combined (PS3 & 360) sales for Japan are off. Who is right here, well being in the financial sector as a career and knowing laws that govern reporting, I'm siding with SEGA and saying VGChartz is WAYYYYYY off on its Bayonetta sales estimates. Good Day.

Or just maybe you don't understand the concept of shipped vs. sold and the incompentant 'video game journalists' who also lack the knowledge.

Sorry to disagree but "Sales Units" = sold units for reporting purposes, there isn't an underlying meaning that means shipped when it comes to financial reporting. No publisher consigns their inventory to retail, they sell to retail, I don't give a crap how many copies are in gamers hands and neither do publishers, they only care how many units sold TO retail and thats whats reported on financial statements.

Joystiq's just retarded. On the report itself it even says the Bayonetta figures are for Japan, America and Europe!
