Can someone confirm that these dickheads are wrong?

so, you would prefer that they would report sold to consumers, something nobody even knows and which would be only a guess then instead of releasing true numbers? you know that the overall numbers for wii u would look worse then right? it would look better this quarter but overall it always looks better to look at sold to retailers and not sold to end-consumers (well, as long as it isn't sold out everywhere, then the number is the same)

what i am gettin at is that people think nintendo sold 160 000 wii u's to the consumers. Besides, on estimates by vgcharts,  the Wii U at the lowest was selling in the mid 20k, accounting for room for error, i doubt Wii U sold (to consumers) under 160 000.
