Yusuf Mehdi, the CMO of Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Division, announced on Tuesday that more than 67 million Xbox 360s have been sold since the console launched in 2005, and it has generated more than $56 billion in sales. The motion sensing input accessory, Kinect, has sold more than 19 million units and the company’s Xbox Live service now boast 40 million members. Xbox users are spending more time on the system and are averaging 84 hours of usage each month.

to clarify, this market share is of america not worldwide.



Does this mean undertraked by vgc or they're just really saying they've shipped over 67 million? Maybe we'll find out at e3.

hum no, check the front page of this site the xbox360 is at 36.2% in market share in NA



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Lol, yes. I read it wrong... :P



47% of market share??? I guess that NPD just in this year lol

67 million X360 is in line with VGC numbers...

19 million Kinects seems like VGC is undertracking a little Kinect Adventures!.

id say they are probably using data from end of last Q (march 2012)  where they showed 67.2 million shipped http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=129135&page=1

 

i would expect 1-2 million shipped this quarter would be shocked if its over 2 though

Isn't that less than 10%?
