That's misleading.

1. its for launch week

2. it does not prove pent up demand as the greater majority of those are people replacing existing 360s. I'd like to see the yoy increase in unique xbl accounts as compared to sales. I bet its far smaller.

you matbe right

He is right.  but it's still crazy sales

Yeah, there's no downplaying a 700% jump in sales--launch week, or previous owners upgrading or not.  That's still a helluva lot of sales.  Certainly, the number of previous owners upgrading can't be the majority in those numbers.  That just wouldn't make much sense.

By the way, is it possible to transfer an Xbox Live account from one Xbox to a replacement console?
