Nintendo always reports shipped numbers so unless they said it's sold-off, it's shipped.

It's shipped + digital, not shipped alone.

I know the figures are including digital, but it might be sold. it only needs to have 300k-320k for the rest of the remaining countries and these numbers exclude Sunday

You would be correct, if we assume VGChartz is, however NPD will clear which of the 2 it is.

Always, no! Most of the time? Yes. Looking at figures it might be sold. Not guaranteed but its a huge possibility, if not very very close!

They said over 1.2 million players are playing the game, so I'm assuming sold.

WHO IS JESUS REALLY?

Yes i agree, Imjust trying to see if its close to that number. If Vgc put sales at lets say 300k-350k, I think it would be pretty safe to say its shipped. Its just the numbers are showing its very very close so for!
