It's also important to look at the measures Microsoft has taken to boost X1 sales. Titanfall was offered for free with the original X1 + Kinect SKU in March. Then, Microsoft removed the Kinect to lower the pricetag to $399 and even offered $75 to 360 users who upgrade to the X1. In the end of August and during September, MS made a lot of bundles and deals such as offering Madden 15 for free, intensively advertising the console with the NFL, and offering two games for free after Destiny came out.

Overall, in this context, I can't say the X1 is selling well because its predecessor has sold better from January to October of its first full calendar year while also being supply constrained.
