They have already passed the WiiU, are outselling the 360, and matching PS4 world wide weekly sales. This means, that if MS continues to play their cards right, next holiday will be even bigger. Oh, and the gaming and devices division is making a profit as well :). |
What still remains to be seen is if this gen has a similar sales curve to the previous gen. Both systems are off to an amazing start and if it has the same curve as last gen then look out they are going to post some massive numbers. However, could also be that they are peaking early when they came out with lower price points than last gen. Last gen also lasted a long time so gamers were really craving something new and jumped in earlier. Late gen you saw ps4 really pick up some more casual users near the end with their blu ray player and xbox did the same with kinect. I don't know what they will be offering that audience to convince them to jump in again. Apple TV may very well be a game console by then.
