Forums - Sales Discussion - Did the Xbox One cross the 500k units mark in September?

 

Did it?

There's no doubt about it. 42 25.45%
 
Probably. 23 13.94%
 
Maybe, maybe not. 19 11.52%
 
Unlikely. 26 15.76%
 
Definitely not. 55 33.33%
 
Total:165

I'm in doubt right now.

Rol showed strong and solid evidences.

But there are something magical with this new guy Ninsect... seems like everything can happen when he says so.

I don't know... right now I believe the VGC numbers are decreasing minute by minute.

it was 284k in the us (not even including Canada + mexico)
it was 30k+ in Japan
it was 20k+ in russia

+ China Launch
+ Tier 2 europe Launch
+ General Tier 1 europe (including uk) sales

ofc the xbox one sold more than 500k in September. there is Zero doubt

Here's how the Xbox One managed 500k+ in September:

USA: 280k (backed up by NPD)
Japan: 35k (backed up by Media Create)
UK: 55k (should be reasonably accurate, because every and now then percentage increases get spilled for hardware)

That's 370k already and now I'll add my personal guesses.

Canada: 25k (roughly 10% of USA sales)
Mexico: 10k
South America: 5k
Germany: 30k
France: 30k
Spain: 10k
Italy: 10k
Rest of Europe: 20k (thanks to tier 2 launches)
Australia: 5k
China: 10k
Rest of the world: 5k

That's 530k in total. No idea how VGC arrived at 720k, but 500k+ should be in the bag with worldwide Destiny and FIFA launches, plus new territories being added.


10k china launch?

there were 16k preorders for just ONE retailer

 

it had 100k confirmed day one shipment

japan got 40k initial shipment and  sold 24k first week (so above 50% sold through)

why should china be significant less?

Ninsect doesn't believe that China added much and I don't need China to have done much in order to push the total of my estimates past the 500k units mark.

So far Ninsect hasn't said much more than "nuh-uh", so I decided to break things down. That way he is basically forced to provide his own breakdown that amounts to fewer than 500k units sold.

I though it was official that MS sold 100k X1s in China?

The uncertainty is too great

No, it's not.

Yes, it is. PS4 has been undertracked by more than that percentage!


So, if vgc said the one had sold 300k, would you still be saying it is uncertain or would you be claiming victory?
