But you cannot count demo units shipped or even sold because they get sent back to the company. I worked in a gamesstore and i can confirm this. The original Xbox demostation was sent back in july 2007 at our store. If i include this number everywhere i can tell you there would be far more GBA's than 81,51 million, far more DS than 154,02 million (ok not the 160 wishfull dream of Ryan but quite a bit more). Warranty replacements are systems that REPLACE others. These are not counted. IF MS would count them (and finally give us an official number- it was 84 million as of june 2014), the number would be close to 90 million if not more. And we all know that the RRod rate was far higher on the Xbox 360 than the YLOD on the PS3. See what i mean?

First it's not over 1 million or 1 million, it's 700k units.

Second it's not 700k in 2 months, because Sony already stated "over 87.4M" So "over" may mean a lot of things.

I also worked in a videogame store, and you also should know, just like me, that PS3 had stock until 2018 (at least in my store - Europe market), which fully suits with Sony making 700k more to sell in the remaining of 2017, and even the holidays.

For the PSP, of course it's possible it sold 6M more in span of almost 3 years. Sony didn't wanted to confirm numbers back then individually because of the poor Vita performance. They choosed hiding Vita's failure sales over confirming beating GBA numbers.

PS2'one I agree it's fake image, it's stinks from miles away. Jim Ryan word was also not specific, probably rounded, anywhere between 158 and 162M can be said as just 160M.

PS4 I doubt they will go out with number 2M more, it can be something like 117.5M at most. Vita for sure won't get anything, as it is the biggest failure of their consoles.
