Forums - Gaming Discussion - Xbox Division up 76% (Q2 - 4.4M 360's shipped,revised shipments down from 15M to 12M)

Microsoft said it sold about 4.4 million 360s during the holiday quarter, which beats out the Wii's 3.19 million, but of course Microsoft's Q2 also includes October before the Wii was released... http://biz.gamedaily.com/industry/feature/?id=15069

"However, the Xbox business has yet to help the division turn a profit. For the quarter, the Entertainment and Devices division posted an operating loss of $289 million, slightly greater than the $286 million loss it sustained over 2005's holiday quarter. Microsoft has previously said it expects to post a profit with the division in its 2008 fiscal year, which starts in July of 2007. Overall, Microsoft's profits were down more than 25 percent for the quarter, slumping to $3.47 billion from $4.66 billion in the same quarter the previous year." http://www.gamespot.com/news/6164755.html?tag=latestnews;title;0
