Thing is: That 10 million figure that Nintendo announced was on December 12th. So, it had to be a few days before or on that exact day. They only way they could have sold an additional 5 million in less than 3 weeks is if it did peak DS numbers where it would sell over 2 million units on Christmas week.
I can tell ya right now, that's not gonna happen.
