To put into perspective why I think even 300K is/would be impressive.

July has amazing Xbox one sales - beats playstation by less than 10K.
August has all the xbox one S pre orders - wins by 114K.
The other two months? 47,500 and 94,000.

In total across these 4 months? 266,200.

Microsoft was also smart with its SKU releases.

- Release the 2TB XBOS at the beginning of August.
- Release the 500GB Halo bundle and 1TB Madden bundle at the end of August, taking advantage of the momentum leaking into September.
- Release the Gears 4 LE, 1TB Gears, and Battlefield 1 bundles in October.
