You have absolutely no idea how this industry works in the slightest. 

Please educate me.

You see, when a company executive says 'sold' they mean shipped to retailers. When they said sold to customers, they mean sold to customers. It's really not that hard

Except when the numbers are showing that Nintendo really means sold to customers.

I knew I should've bought some knee-high boots....

What numbers? Companies always mean sold to retailers, unless they specify otherwise (like Sony did in NA, EU launch)

Are you trolling me?

The mediacreate, famitsu and Dengenki weekly Japanese sales are already available and it only accounts for 2 days of sales and not 3:

Then VGchartz has Mario Kart 8 tracked at over 480k for the US alone and an additional 300k for the UK, its safe to say Nintendo meant "sold" and not shipped. Do some research.
