happens in every single thread when a company reports their numbers. Its honestly puzzling how this is an issue every thread.  Raises some questions in my mind honestly

Yes I just can't understand this also, for many years whenever quarterly numbers are reported in financial statements from Nintendo,Sony,Microsoft its always shipped. Yet it seems we have always have people always saying Oh no thats actually Sold to customers not shipped.

Perhaps this site needs a FAQ, and write at the top a short piece explaining this

I can understand if its new members but its especially baffling when its people who have been on this site for years are saying its sold through.
