Wasn't Xbox One supposed to unify all of this? Only in America was expected, but still isn't good. The features of this console look almost exclusively designed for that market. And yet they expect 1B next gen console sales. America only has 315m people

I don't know, I think it seems legit.

 

For one, in ten years America's population will be like 350 million and when you add in illegals it will be 400 total. Then every household will have an average of 3-4 X1's which will probably total 400 million in the US alone. Then you add in replacements and you're sitting pretty at about 450 million for the US alone. By this time the advertised features should work decently with most of Europe, Canada, Australia, and maybe Mexico. Little American alone will have probably 150 million X1's sold bringing that total up to 550 million and the rest of europe will go crazy over exclusive FIFA content so they will add another easy 300 million for a total of 850 million. After that Canada, Mexico and Australia will probably manage 75 million and another 50 million should come easily from the rest of the world since they will be coming along quite likely. The remaining 25 million will come from replacements WW.

Boom, there's your 1 billion.
