You would think William D'Angelo would be able to use a calculator for lifetime calculations....

Please... just use a calculator and add up (for example) WiiU sales for 2012-2013... please.... Taken the last number of each... 9+9, there is no way the lifetime can end in a 7.... and check your 3DS and Vita lifetime as well... Vita... 3+4+6 does not equal an ending number of 5.... it would end in a 3

2,256,509 + 861,099 = 3,117,608 and the Vita lifetime would then be 4,694,753 and not 4,578,035

That all depends on whether or not the author of the article actually got the lifetime number correct. Which I sincerely doubt since he totally messed up the calculations for 8th gen
