.....that seems painfully low, BUT! I am uncertain what to compare it to. o.o Remind me, how many days has the Xbox One been out in Japan? Has it been a full week yet? Any chance of PS4 and Wii U numbers in the same period of time?

I wasn't that far off, I predicted 22k fw.That's as good as it's going to get for the xb1 in Japan.



Wow it will probably sell as much if not more here in India



apparently i heard that the 360 sold 63K and the original Xbox sold 123 when they both launch in Japan ouch something tells me next week aint gonna look pretty

Wii U did 306k
PS4 319K
The Xbox 360 54k

It isn't good, but they apparently only shipped 40k consoles, so considering that it isn't too bad either.

Eep. Kind of odd they only shipped 40k, given the predecessor moved more than that, at least. o.o Aw well. Thanks for the info! :3

Well they did kind of have some PR disasters with the initial reveal. The 360 also had no real competition when it released, as it was a year before the Wii and PS3.


Aye, true; and, on a slightly more cynical note, it's probably preferable in this case, given the uphill fight, to avoid shipping too many units, and ending up with big, imposing stacks of unsold Xbox Ones all over the place, so a bit of lowballing might be in order. o.o Does make me wonder how it's faring in the other regions, though.
