Only because 3DS sell more than what Nintendo shipped, that don't mean is overtracked.

Look PS3, PSVita, XBO, PS4... all this console have sold more than what have shipped according to VGChartz.

So, ALL cnosole are overtracked? Just for say, one time Nintendo have ship 80,000 GC in a quarter of 2003, and it have sold 120,000 just in a month in the US.

 

Media Create and NPD have 3DS at ~1.35 million Jan to March.

VGChartz have 3DS at ~2 million so far... adding anothe 100,000 because the next week, 3DS will be at ~2.1 million.

750,000 Europe + North America withouth US + Rest of world seem correct, don't forget that N3DS have 160,000 the week ending 14 February.

The difference is that the 3DS showed a much larger gap between shipped and sold all while launching a new model in two territories.  The 3DS showed a 400k drop in units at retail if the VGC numbers are correct.  The PS3 would be ~140k, Vita ~80k, XBO seems to have sales lower than shipped for the quarter, and the PS4 is the only one that gets close at ~320k.

The Japanese shipment was quite low this quarter though, so it is possible that stock was drawn down that much.  It would depend on European numbers.
