The same reason sony officially announced over 10million ps4s sold on 13/aug, yet we are still at 10.1mil sold on vgchartz? 

Just take vgchartz' numbers with a grain of salt. 

There is absolutely no connection between shipments and sales. Microsoft could as well ship 10 mln by march and still sell 5 mln by august. Consoles just colecting dust on the shelves. I do agree with You about VG chartz numbers there are definitely some discrepancies, we shouldnt really treat that numbers as kind of Bible.

Just out of curiousity, who would keep ordering those systems if they are only sitting on shelves?

Just out of curiosity, what did you respond when I asked you that about the wii u a few weeks back?

The thing is MS is over saturating the market with new bundles. Stores take them because its a difeerent bundle and others might buy it aside from the one the already have, so when they dont sell they stack up and then a new one comes and it is still diferent even if the game is the only thing that changes, so when they dont sell they stack them up again, right now we have titanfall, madden, kinect, no kinect, forza bundles. Thas five diferent bundles available, wich MS will add another next month I think with sunset overdrive. Stores have to have at least a couple of them at a time and with the hundreds of thousands of stores around the world with stock just sitting on shelves, thats why MS does not anounce numbers, and retailers keep orthering diferent bundles even if they have unsold stock.

Could you give any reason why before june, retailers would orther a lot of wii u's and just have them sitting on shelves, without any bundles, wich nintendo was any ofering much, just the supermario and luigy and zelda for a limited amont of time. There was not even a plain bundle and the 8gb model was discontiniud.
