it's selling just fine, relax people. This is how last Gen started and look at the end result they are basically tied with the PS3 with slightly more in sales. Relax, don't worry about units sold and Game the Freak on.

Gonna stick with the 360 owners more satisfied here.

Is that a joke ?

Yeah, I have to agree. The X1 had a terrific launch, which was outdone by an even more terrific launch by the PS4. However, in January, sales fell by the wayside. The system will definitely have good sales this holiday, but after that? Well.....

I think the XBone will end up selling pretty decently in the end. It will sell similar to the N64 as in it will sell pretty good in the U.S and only ok to poor elsewhere.

I think it'll sell around 40M in the end.

Bad compared to the XB360 but decent in the grand scheme of things

Isn't this a pointless post? no matter how you want to spin the numbers the end result is the XB1 has sold more than the X360 like for like over the same time period.

As long as the XB1 sells better than the 360 and their division is making profit I'm sure MS will be happy, there is no point MS trying to catch the PS4 sales, the PS4 has won the sales war this gen already

People seem to forget that about 1/5 of the consoles overall sales in the 11 months its been on the market, happened during it's first week.

It's not spin when you analyze factors, especially ones as important as current sales.

If Xbone launched at 10M, but didn't sell a single console again from January until now, would you be praising how much "better" it's doing than 360....even though right now (in this example), nobody is buying it and the forseeable future is that nobody will buy it? Yea, 10M, and like for like, it outsold the 360 in the same time period....but no sales afterward just means you're leaning on launch to make what the reality is, 11 months afterward, look better.

That's what you do when you say "it's selling better than 360 in the same time period" despite the fact that outside of that 6 week launch period, 360 has handidly outsold the XBone in the same time period. Launch was 11 months ago. Stop talking about it.  Stop relying on it. Those 6 weeks are the only thing XBone got right. People who invest in Xbox, want to make new IPs for Xbox, etc aren't gonna overlook the poor sales that have occurred since immediately after launch til now  and say "sure, I'll put my money in this platform. I mean, it's future isn't looking good, but who cares about where this platform is going? It had a great launch an irrelevant time ago!" Yea....so did Betamax. Not that XBone will go the way of Betamax, but just relying on a strong launch instead of current trends is deluding yourself to make "healthy sales" something it isn't.

Yeah, it was a press release by Medhi I think, or someone higher up that said the reason why xbox1 wasn't doing as well was because 360 owners were more satisfied with their system than ps3 owners, and had no reason to upgrade to xb1...because the 360 is THAT amazing...or perhaps the other way around?

Absolutely not. Everyone knows the WiiU sells poorly because people are satisfied with their Wiis.

Is is also shown that people are more content with 360 than PS3. Proof of this is shown with the PS3 not only selling more hardware per week, but more software as well. 

So, PS4 sells great due to the unsatisfied PS3 owners who buy more games than the satisfied 360 owners.
