Gap is 6.3 not 7. Shipments (ultimately sold consoles) this year stand at 1.3m x360 vs 350k~ wii. Will happen next year at some point.


I'm a little lost.  What numbers are your refering to? According to the front page the gap is much higher than 6.3 million. 

The OP does some awful rounding. XB360 is 1.6m in Japan for instance, not 2m.

XB360 has shipped 84.2m WW, sold 1.6m in Japan, thus is 82.6m WW (minus Japan)

Wii is 101.06m shipped WW minus 12.7m from Japan, thus 88.36m = 5.76m elsewhere in the world. So it's lower than 6.3 (I thought it was 101.6m but it's 101.06m for Wii).

So far this year the gap has closed 1m+.

XB1 is selling low but IMO not as low as VGC suggests, this is backed up by the fact we had 3m+ on shelves according to VGC a little while ago. The console has shipped 1.3m~ this year alone. It's slowing but not as fast as some people think.
