No, they always specifically said "worldwide".  Emphasized it even.  And it was never stated as a goal, it was stated as volition.  Of course I haven't heard anything since SW Kinect got delayed, which HAS to change projections, right?  Wrong.

August NPD PR (bold mine):

"Xbox 360 maintains its lead over the current-generation console market, selling more units in the U.S. than any other console for 14 of the past 15 months. Sustained consumer demand for Xbox 360 and Kinect have helped the console maintain its number one spot in 2011, proving that consumers continue to recognize the excellent value and amazing games and entertainment experiences delivered by Xbox 360. With an exciting holiday sales season coming up, marked by blockbuster game titles and great new hardware offerings, we continue to expect this to be the biggest year in Xbox history, and the distinction of being this year’s best-selling console worldwide."

So you tell me.  What do they know that we don't, because I personally can't see anything OTHER THAN a price cut possibly doing that?  I'm a 360 fan, but c'mon.


Well haven't they outshipped Sony and Nintendo the first half of the year? 

Eurogamer: So when you say number one you mean sales?

Chris Lewis: I mean purely install base with consumers. We don't count units unless they're actually out there and installed. This isn't shipments. This isn't revenue. This is install base of consoles.
