VGC estimates that the Xbox Series X|S sold through 7.6m by the end of September. Lifetime sales expectations?

If I recall correctly, your lifetime predictions for PS5 + Xbox Series was 130m, right? So 80-90m lifetime for PS5?

You can click on the link on my sig to go back to our original discussion.  I said 130m was the max for PS5 + X|S, IIRC.

Right now, I am not totally confident in my X|S prediction or even my PS5 prediction if you break them down separately..  That is why I bet PS5 + X|S numbers.  If X|S is higher than PS5 will be lower and vice versa.  At this point I wouldn't be terribly shocked if X|S goes 30m or 70m.  I could see either possibility.  But PS5 numbers will adjust to compensate.

30m for XS would mean it's sold over a quarter of its lifetime sales in its first 11 months, all while being supply constrained, and before any of its big games arrive. That is highly unlikely.
