Shouldn't Xbone be higher? Its price was cut 25% and there's no major bump. Europe still clearly doesn't give a fu**. Is MS running out of options here?


Its higher than the 360 at the same time of year in 2006 without all of the countries.

Do you even bother to check the data before you post things like this?

3 June 2006  - 85K

10 June 2006 - 81K

17 June 2006 - 80K

24 June 2006 - 78K

Xb one is not doing better than 360 at the same time of year in 2006. You might have an argument that if Xb one was in all the countries the nummbers would be much closer. But that is a total unknown and at this time of year the 40 markets where Xb one isn't might only account for 2000 consoles.

Xbox 360's first summer never went below 70K. Indeed the next time 360 goes below 70K is 18 May 2007. It will be interesting to see if Xb one can stay above 70K for so long. Do you know when 360 had its first ever sub 50K week? 13 march 2014. How many sub 50K weeks has Xb one had already? 6 of them. 5 consecutive weeks. There is a very good reason MS ditched autobundled Kinect: because their projections were showing that staying with Kinect at a higher price than PS4 meant Xb one would probably be the last Xbox console because sales were looking that bad.

You're forgetting that the PS3 was doing far, far, far, FAR worse than X1 during its first year headed into summer. Far worse. Yet it recovered nicely. It'll pick up dude. You know it, I know it. Stop with the gloom. It's unwarranted, and I think you know that.
