As the Title implies, I decided to create a single thread comparing shipments and sales(according to VGC of course) for the 360, Wii, and PS3.(And now DS and PSP) Shipment data from Nintendo and Sony was easy enough to find, but older numbers from Microsoft was a chore to find. Sales data was very simple thanks to the Hardware Table feature. I believe everything is accurate, but if anyone notices a typo or something off, please let me know and I'll fix it. I'll also keep this post up to date each time the Big 3 release their statements and every month or so to account for VGC adjustments.

*For the PSP, FY '04 and '05 are production numbers as the actual shipment numbers aren't published anywhere. This will cause PSP shipped numbers to be inflated by the units that were counted twice,(when produced and when shipped) but the exact amount is anyone's guess.
** The PS3 shipped total was ~38M through June 2010, so this would put the PSP shipped total at 62M through the same date.
