When the article was posted, it wasn't sure if it was shipped or sold, now we know

That's strange for not one but two reasons:

1: Why wouldn't VGC wait to be sure before writing "sold" instead of "shipped"? And even stranger is...

2: Why don't they simply update the article and change "shipment" with "units sold" in the title?

You could be right of course but this is strange nonetheless.

others sources like gamesindustry and gematsu put sold instead of shipped too, i think some writer will update the article title later.
