oh dear... They are shipped. These reports show shipped numbers. Nintendo doesn't use the "ship" terminology they use "sold" instead.


Sony use "sale" numbers, MIcrosoft use specifik "shipped" (and it merged with the xbox 360 figures, lol), NIntendo use now sale two.

They've always used this terminology "sold" to refer to shipment numbers; it is  much more specific for analyst and investors. When Nintendo communicates about sales milestones to their fans and media they will use "sell-through" and "sold to"  or something similar. Make no mistake my friend, these are shipment numbers.
