I think it's sell through data, but the wording of the statement confuses me. Andrew says the PS4 debuted to 1 million units in NA, what about week 2 and week 3 sales? Why is the 2.1 total he gave only reference debut sales, but then he states it the total sales up to Dec 1st? I think the statement is off, PS4 debuted to 1 million in NA and 1.1 million in EU. Since the USA debut, I think PS4 has sold about 400k units, meaning PS4 is actually at 2.5 million, not 2.1. That's my hypothesis. |

"Tokyo, December 3, 2013 – Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) today announced that cumulative sell through for the PlayStation®4 (PS4™) computer entertainment system worldwide has surpassed 2.1 million units*1 as of December 1, 2013. The number includes the 700,000 units sold through in Europe and Australasia launching on November 29. The PS4 system became available on November 15 in the United States and Canada and on November 29 in Europe, Australasia and Latin America and is now available in 32 countries globally.
This confirms EU only accounted for 700k, so north america "including latin america" has to be 1.4m+
