Yeah, some of those numbers are pretty suspect.  They came from TOSE Software, but they never sourced them to anyone.  Some of my problems below...

• PC Engine only sold 3.5m iirc in Japan, TG16 was a relative flop in America, it never released in Europe... so how the hell'd they get to 10 million?  Were Duo sales actually that high?

• The Saturn figure seems low too, it sold almost 6m Japan alone... so only less than 3m for the rest of the world?  Seems unlikely, more likely it's around 10m.

• PS2 seems REALLY low. Like 10-15m light.

• PS3 ahead of 360.  lol.
