I predict you will be way off on all your predictions. To even think that MS can sell another 12 million units in the next 8 months, when it is mightily struggling to reach 11 million sold after two major price cuts. If anything, XOne will sell even less than last year, because its cornerstone titles like Fable and Halo are moving to the PC, with Gears surely to follow next year. There is simply no reason anyone will be willing to buy a lower specced console with inferior multiplat offerings, and I fully expect XOne to top out at 17 million by the end of 2015, as they will slowly start pulling out of the worldwide market, and to close at about 30 million by the end of 2017 when it will be discontinued and MS leaves console business for good, moving its properties onto PC.

Oh stop with your continued 'Microsoft leaving the console industry' BS. There's no indication of that happening in fact there's more evidence that they will make another console. The 360 sold 84 million, that's no mean feat and Microsoft knows that. Xbox and PC might become more interconnected but that doesn't really mean anything. 

MS leaving the console industry is very possible if they ever decide its benefits outweigh it lossing them billions of dollars. Xbox One may end up profitable eventually if MS would quit lossing money on bundles
