Lots of quotes of the Atari Falcon selling 13-14k units by Sep 1993, before they sold the rights to C-lab and 4k units of unsold stock, so a maximum of 18k by the end i should imagine.
From what i can find going through old Amiga mags, UK wise of the 44k A1200’s sold in 1992, 30k were in the UK, 70k more were by end of Q2 1993, Com UK stated 46k sold in ‘summer quarter’ taking it to 146k by end of Q3 1993, and a reported 160k were sold Q4 Christmas 1993 period which were the last numbers reported (total of 306k) before the A1200 shortage in early 1994.
Other countries are harder to find numbers, Germany we had that 115k number quoted of March 1994. I’ve seen numbers low as 5-10k for some Scandinavian countries.
So my guesstimate would be 500k Commodore A1200’s sold worldwide. Then add the 50k Amiga Technologies unit sales from 95/96.
