If you look at the last 3 weeks of data, going back to March 27th.

We've got this for the weeks ending on these dates:

------------------------------

March 27th - 526,554

April 3rd - 476,251

April 10th - 460,823

--------------------------

Now for the week ending on March 27th, we've only got 3 days of April data. So if we divide the figure by 7 (days of the week), then multiply by 3 (days of April) then we'd have 300,888 units sold in those three days. If we add THAT to the other two figures, that gives us a total of 1,237,962 units sold in April (~1.24 million units).

If we subtract the 1.24 million in April from the 83.95 million figure on the front page, then that leaves us with 82.71 million units sold to consumers as of March 31st.

Subtract THAT from the 84.59 shipped figure from Nintendo, and that leaves us with a gap of 1.88 million units between sold to consumers and shipped/in transit to retailers.
