If these numbers are true, then around 80% of xbox sales would have to come from America alone...

80% would be ~24M, if we say they are slightly off and it's 30M.  Even using VGC's 20.28M, that's 67.6%.  That's not that hard to believe, given that outside of US, UK, and maybe AU, the XBO has basically been non-existent as of late. 

So xbox sales went from 60% US to 80% all of a sudden? I really don't think it works that way. The xbox one sold 1.5 million units in the UK over the past two year, and Australia and Canada are in the hundreds of thousands at least. If these numbers where true, the xbox one would have sold less than 1 million units in mainland Europe, Latin America, rest of NA, and Asia in the past two years. The Xbox One was already at 2.5 million units in mainland Europe at the beginning of 2016, so please explain to me how it fell off a cliff like that...

Edit: This also assumes us sales where 8 million the last two years. Considering last year was a down year by most consensus estimates, yet still sold 4.2 million in the US, its proboably higher than that
