Truth is we dont know. It could be sub 30 million. In the far flung future when the truth comes out it will be interesting to see how close the estimates are.

Assuming it is at 34.1 million (it most likely is not) I dont see it getting to 36 million. Clearly Microsoft doesn't want it to sell. Between now and when the Asus Xbox Magnus launches in 2027 you should expect between 500k and 750k. I would love to be wrong here but as I pointed out Microsoft doesn't want to sell them so any positive momentum will trigger another price increase.

That is optimistic. 
With ram prices likely being crazy for all of 2026 and 2027..... launching a new console is gonna be pricey. 

From the sound of things the next Xbox is gonna be an expensive premium device so it was probably already gonna be a pricey niche product. Cause of that I could see them launching in late 2027 anyway and just lowering the price once things settle.
