While this sounds good, shipments does not equal sales.

Interested to see FW sales though.


It does = Sales. For the creators of the game :P


Haha, well I guess the retailers did buy those games in order to sell them.

Retailers usually have clauses to be able to return unsold product to the manufacturer :p That said, in Japan they seem to be a lot more on the pulse of how much they need to order based on all the 80% sell throughs you tend to see.
