Dreamcast also only did 9.16m iirc, so that's 2 milestones actually :P

I saw some guy in a recent thread a few minutes ago stating that Wii U would never pass Sauturn lifetime sales. lul

Wikipedia's list has Dreamcast at 10.6m, so Sega's hardware swansong is safe for now... come Christmas though, it had better watch it's back. ;)

Wikipedia's wrong (for real now) on Sega's own investor documents they had the Dreamcast at 9.16m by March 2001 ie, when it was discontinued.

Not sure if that was the number of units produced or shipped but its unlikely they went on to sale over 1m units more.

You of all people throwing Sega under the bus! :p

I guess we can still have a "Wikipedia numbers" party when Wii U passes 10.6m. ;)

EDIT: Post 17,777. I feel lucky!

Wkipedia is wrong.

The final number is 9.13m

NA: 4.64m (USA: 4.1m)

PAL: 1.63m

Asia: 2.86m
