I didn't said anything wrong and i am not spinning anything. Selling and shipping is different.
Yes. You wrote:
"i am pretty sure that 4.1m figure includes numbers from other territories too"
"(since the 4.1m number from Capcom's site includes sales from other territories like Korea)"
Regardless whether you like sell-through numbers more, we were talking about the 4.1m data point disclosed by Capcom. 4.1m refers to Japanese sales as stated by Capcom---I provided you evidence on this (FY14 financial report). Hence you were factually wrong.
Yeah but my argument is that companies were expecting PS4 to sell a little bit better to sustain sales of multi-million franchises. I don't remember how much more PS4 is selling versus PS3. If it is in the range of 300-400k more that doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things. Don't you think Square Enix and Capcom went full force on PS4 expecting do more than PS3 in Japan in order to sustain higher sales for multi-million franchises? Seems pretty reasonable to me.
