Sold-through (which is to consumer). I just finished up my research.

Nah, you had it right the first time. I just needed to be sure. I added the "through" part so people could better understand it vs sold-in (shipped to retailer).

Nope, it clearly says "shipped" and not sold. I know Nintendo fans love to jump on positive news like a starving person would on a steak with salad and fries but the fact is "shipped" and "sold" is not the same thing. Unless it sold everything it shipped but then Nintendo would have said "sold" and not shipped. The numbers are good for the Switch of course but no need to jump the gun.

Okay, so I did my research and apparently CGI-Quality came to the conclusion that the numbers were sold through. I could not, however, verify whether he was a starving nintendo fan jumping on a steak with salad and fries. The results of my research were inconclusive on that front. 

Lol. Not sure why Crazygamer has that angry sound to it

If Switch has the longevity to get all the way to 100+ million then Odyssey not only has the potential to be a 20 million seller but yet another 30 million seller. I don't see any future Switch game outselling it. No not even Pokemon or Mario Kart 9.

Err... These numbers aren't sold to consumers.

Consolidated sales does NOT mean sold through to consumers.

These numbers are shipped, as the numbers in Nintendo's site have always been for both hardware and software for years.

So heavily undertracked on here then.

i think its shipped too. nintendo announced 10m sold as of december 10th. its highly unlikely they sold over 4m within 3 weeks



Pinkie_pie on 31 January 2018

nintendo planning to ship 17.76m by march 31st. how many have they shipped by december 31st if they did indeed sold 14.86m?
