Gilgamesh I'm sorry i didn't see this before posting. So the numbers will be change ?

TWroO, like you said before i think that in 99,99% of cases all the units are sold, even if the games prices are drop very low, it is still counted as sold. And would you explain to me the meaning of your last sentence ? At least i do brillant sentence without being aware :).

Nice to see some french speaker

Edit : Nen-suer, I forgot about disgaea, but Jeanne d'Arc uses pretty graphics (for psp) no ? Because all the technical aspects of Disgaea's games are mediocre, so it's normal that they are cheap to produce.

Yeh the number's will likely be changed, just give it time I'm sure the boys upstairs are looking into it.

In many cases all units are sold yes... but I didn't say in 99.9% of cases all are sold.

What I said was in most cases, 99.9% of copies are sold.

In truth both statements are probably true though... most games will just get reduced in price till they do sell.... but I would say maybe 10% of games will have a small number of copies sent back (probably in bulk with other games by that distributor) And by small number I mean like 5 or 10 copies sent back.


And all I mean by that last bit is all I said... it's a legitimate sentence, but I just realised how brilliant it sounds.

It is not always true that sold will eventually equal shipped.

When software goes unsold, the companies will sometimes take it back from the retailers (probably they wait a few years after the game goes out of print)

The vast majority of the time of course, 99.9% of what is shipped will be sold eventually, but on occasion I would think some games that are massively over shipped might end up being partially recalled.

However it is highly unlikely.

Also I don't know why, but I think this is both a funny, and brilliant sentence:

"Forgive my english, i'm french."


Hehe this reminds about something.  Few years ago we were walking around the beach with an temperature of 20°.  We saw someone jumping in the water and we were all like 'what it is still so cold to swim!'

We go to him and say 'Hey are you crazy?' He totally not understand us and replies with'    'I am Irish!'  And we were all like 'ROFL THAT EXPLAINS A LOT'...  Ah good times =p.
