Did Sony say sold to consumers or just "sold", which in industry speak means shipped. Only thing I've ever read is "sold" so I interpreted as shipped.


Sold to consumers. Also, according to ioi, shipped = sold.

O_o No way does shipped=sold for the purposes of VG Chartz numbers.

It is not possible that there are zero units in the supply chain, so there is no way that even for PS4 shipped=sold. Shipped~sold maybe. Even if the difference is only a few 10s of thousands the numbers are still not the same.

His words, not mine. Also, from the manufacturers point of view, shippd == sold.

Link please.

For the purposes of this thread the manufacturer's PoV is irrelevant. This thread is talking about the sales number on VG Chartz LTD sell through to 28 Dec 2013. Shipped=/=sold, not even for PS4.
