Lol you guys are arguing over Shipped figures its so funny. Tell me when the gap is 2.8 million in sales then i will actually take the time to comment and examine the figures but shipped???? Who Cares the only people that care about shipped numbers are the extreme nerds. 


shipped numbers in the end are sales numbers and it's the only real official world wide numbers we can 100%ly rely on, which is why announcing shipment numbers is standard for (almost?) all producing industries

btw the people who care the most about shipments are investors/share holders


and MOST people who visit this site care about sold to consumers... hence the name of the site... why is this such an issue?

the issue is discrediting shipped numbers and the people that are interested in them, because they don't fit one's agenda

the numbers on this site are good approximations of sales to customers (considering it's a free service), but the only "real" numbers we ever get is shipped numbers


True, but who cares if there are 10 million console sitting on shelves when the console is way past its prime time (PS2 anyone?).
