I'm curious as to why VGC chose to bump up their Series XS estimates worldwide following MS' earnings report which imo showed a likely global overtracking... For July-Sept: -Playstation reported a 287% hardware revenue increase YoY. -Xbox reported a 166% hardware revenue increase YoY. PS4 reported a weak 393 million $ hardware revenue last year. Xbox didn't report hw revenues but we can extrapolate from NPD's sell through data and common sense that it was a lot lower than Playstation's (Maybe around 200-250 million $). NPD 2020 sell through: July August September And NPD only covers Xbox's strongest market... Other factors worth mentioning is the average Xbox One price being much lower than Series XS (Xbox One X was discontinued in July last year) and maybe even lower than PS4's. The numbers just don't add up! |
Thank you. I just saw the article.
The Xbox business is full of uncertainties, so official figures like this are really valuable.
