It looks like that person got that percentage from dividing XB1's NPD LTD numbers by the quantity of EA's install base estimate minus Sony's PS4 sell-through numbers. It's already established that subtracting the PS4's sell-through numbers from EA's estimate is not an accurate way of finding out the XB1's WW sales. Last time I checked, the US made out around 60% of the XB1's total sales. A jump from 60% to 70% is hard to believe, in my opinion.

Not that aI agree with the dude, but a jump from 60 to 70% isn't that far fetched when you consider that its a not a jump at all..... in truth it just means that the XB1's performance outside NA is getting worse. The worse it gets outside NA the bigger a percentage NA will represent in sales.

My numbers might be a little off, but I have the XB1 selling around 20.15m in the US LTD by the end of last year. Coupled with the approximate 35m WW LTD sales, that will put the US % at 57.57%. We know for sure that over the first quarter of this year, the US % went up. Microsoft said that XB1 sales increased YOY by 15% while NPD figures show that American sales increased YOY by 37% in the same time period.
