There's still Europe to go (1), and Western numbers don't include Sunday which is included in Nintendo's data (2). You also have digital sales to count for. Nintendo never release shipped numbers like that, they usually release sold numbers.

(1) Europe is the weakest territory for Ninty and UK sales are known to be between 50-100K. France alone won't save the day.
(2) Do a lot of people buy games on Sunday?

We're looking at around 70-100k in France imo. 50k+ Germany. 100k from rest of Europe so thats 270k+ in EU would be my guess.
Also one days of sale worldwide can be assumed to be 100k on the Sunday. It sold 480k in NA on Friday and Saturday, another 70k is not out of the question. Another 30k from Europe doesn't seem out of place either.
It brings the number pretty close to 1.2 m if those assumptions are taken. Not very farfetched. We will have to wait for NPD numbers I guess to give us a better example, but Japan's numbers are known and EU's numbers can be extrapolated from France/UK numbers fairly accurately. This is all without any digital sales included.
