Last year is probably still overtracked as well.  Media Create has Japan at 14.66m at the end of the year.  Nintendo shipped 15.76m to Japan.  That means a 1.1m shipped/sold gap in just one country.  However VGC shows a worldwide gap of 950k.  That would suggest that outside of Japan the 3DS had sold every unit they shipped and more.

Not at all the anecdotal evidences we all had all around the globe during those last months in many places. Quite the contrary in fact for 3DSs and Wii-Us.

For instance with PS4 we had anecdotal evidence from everywhere and almost everyone that shipped = sold though and this during months until recently.
