It's the industry standard to report like that, seen Sony first do it back in 2013 when they announced TLOU sales numbers. Also the industry is about 20-30% digital right now according to various sources, so we could say that FF15 is about 1-1.5M digital.

Thats even more reason then that the game hasnt sold 5mil. Do you really think its under 1mil in stores rivht now WW?

 

Japan for example has over 200k on store shelves. Europe probably has more than that and NoA easily has alot. Game isnt sold out. Extra shipment means demand is there but its not like stores dont have 10s and 10s of copies left. I still think the game sold over 4mil. Well get NPD tomorrow so we should get a better understanding. 

Well, there's some wrong here.

Japan has less than 20% of its shipment left and it's been that way for 3 weeks? MC and Famitsu both agree with this. Simple math suggests <200k left based on sold compared to 80-100% of shipment sold through.

The semantics of how much it sold vs shipped aren't really important or the point. Retailers would not order more copies if the game wasn't selling. It clearly is. That's good news and the point of the PR.
