The Xbox 360 began production only 69 days before launch,[34][35]...By year's end, Microsoft had shipped 1.5 million units, including 900,000 in North America, 500,000 in Europe, and 100,000 in Japan. 70 days from now is November 11, so an early November launch for the XBox One looks likely if they have the same production run. Given technological advances, I would assume that this time around Microsoft would be able to ship more than 1.5 million consoles by the end of the year. |
Interesting...
If they started the production now... I mean September... that's 82 days for Nov 22th... they will a little more time to produce... and remember 1.5 millions is what they shipped at Dec 31... for the launch 360 was heavly supply coinstrainted with only 326k units sold in November (8 days in the market).
I think Xbone will sell ~500k in November this year... not a big launch but better than 360... retail supply will have a lot of trouble.
I hopo they can do better... like 4-5 million for the year.
