Dude, this is all a matter of wording. Look here is the 1 million PS4 tweet by Shuhei Yoshida:

PS4 has sold through over 1 million units within 24 hours of the launch in North America!!! :D

See what it says? "Sold through".

You know what? You're 100% right, and I am 100% wrong.

Still believe sold through means shipped unless direct sourcing the number. No one doubted PS4 numbers at the time because it was sold out everywhere.

"Sold through" refers to moving a product through the entirety of a distribution chain (Producer -> Wholesaler -> Retailer -> Consumer) (Sometimes a wholesaler or retailer are skipped)

"Sold to" refers to moving a product only to the next link in the distribution chain. It would equal the term "shipped".
