If it's undertracked by 250k, that means 250k are on store shelves and sold digitally, very possible. Yet that 250k adjustment wouldn't make it a million seller.

But its not undertracked by 250k. Six months ago it was at 1.1 m and we have it at i think 730k. So using figures that are six months old that would be 370k undertracked. Sorry but i dont buy that digital sales are that high for mario tennis.

No, six months ago Nintendo had shipped 1.1 million including digital. That does NOT mean 1.1 million sold physically, so you cannot conclude how much it is undertracked by that number.

I'm sure the game sold at least 100k on the eShop globally, and there must be SOME units on shelves, which means it had sold fewer than 1 million as of six months ago despite Nintendo's 1.1 million shipped report. There could easily have been 200k copies on shelves. How many do you think it has sold in the last six months, more than a year after its release? It's not Mario Kart, its legs aren't going to be crazy good.


Nintendo statement said 1.1m sold, not shipped.
