Question is...

How many PS2s were defective and replacements?

How many Xboxs were used only for Linux boxes?

It's still a sale for the respective company thought. It would impact game sales later on but the company has sold that many consoles no matter the intention or use.

We might as well include Nokia N-Gage. The regional data is not available, but Nokia includes the worldwide total sales in its financial reports.

By the end of the quarter, Nokia had cumulatively sold 1.3 million N-Gage devices.

http://www.nokia.com/2004/Q4/
That's 1.3 million N-Gage sold by the end of 2004.

It's time for another mini-update of hardware shipments.

Worldwide Hardware Sales (End of September 2005)
PS2 - 96.01 million
Xbox - 22.5 to 23 million (unofficially estimated)
GameCube - 19.31 million
Game Boy Advance - 70.04 million
Nintendo DS - 8.83 million
PSP - 8.81 million
N-Gage - 2 million

Since updated Xbox sales numbers are not expected until early 2006, I estimated from 22.5 to 23 million. Xbox 360 numbers should also be available in early 2006.

The figures are shipments (or "sales" to stores) using official manufacturer numbers, not from third party organizations such as NPD, Media Create, Chart Track, etc.

Then that explains why the Sony PSP Numbers are overly high, its their own released figures which we know are bogus.
