Will Xbox Series X/S make it to 40 million?

There's no guarantee at all that it'll stay at 200k per month going forward. In fact it would be very surprising if June isn't better than May since as I said June is a significantly stronger month for console sales than May. I don't think expecting a nearly 50% drop in November+December is realistic based on just a couple bad months that weren't 50% down from the same months last year. May was 30% down and it's 30% down so far this year overall so the question is why would it decline a lot more than that for the 2nd half of the year?

For that image the reason it'll easily exceed the Xbox One line by the end is it barely having a holiday boost so it'll shoot up like the 360 one did. 

There's no guarantee it will boost itself up to 300k per month too (5 week months I can see them doing ~ 250k) June will be slightly better, because it is 5 week month. However the sales for Europe are out and you can see them per week. The sales per week are on the same level they were for May - between 15 and 18K. So no improvement there. We will have US data soon enough too. The year for the XBSX is going for a finish around the 4M mark. It won't be 50% drop for the year, it will be something like 40% drop. And that is if it can stay to 200K or more per month. Hopefully it doesn't go under. And yes, it will shoot up like the 360 one did. No doubt about that. Simply from ~ 2.5M to ~ 4M. This is decent shoot up. More than half of the sales for just 2 months.
