Why does Sony only want us to know what they shipped to retail instead of sold to consumers?

Because those are the numbers that matter to their shareholders, Sony makes money from selling to retailers, not consumers directly

Then why doesnt Microsoft do it?

These constant shipped numbers from Sony are nothing but an attempt at PR. However if I was Microsoft I would start always using ship figures also to to combat this. This is comparing Apples and Oranges.

Microsoft doesn't do that... just Nintend had a tracking company for thi purpose.

Sold to consumers from Microsoft = Sold to retail (their consumers) .
