Will Xbox Series X/S make it to 36 million?

I'd say it should get there no problem unless we get some actual sales data with the new CEO and it shows we need to adjust down. Like with PlayStation under Jim Ryan we did get some PS5 sell-through data before that stopped with the new CEO.

It would be great to get final Xbox 360 figures, along with the Xbox Series X|S.

Or adjust up.

360 though I am pretty sure the final total numbers should be what you have estimated here, around 86M.

The thing is, it seems Microsoft has scaled down Xbox series production a lot, so for them to go for increased Xbox sales, they would need to scale up that production, but the last thing an AI focused company would do right now is to scale up hardware production for a product that has sold a good bit over 90 % of its lifetime sales potential already, so i expect Xbox series to continue with low production and low sales every month until it gets discontinued.

90% of it's lifetime sales ? That is what Microsoft defines not us. They can change everything and skyrocket it's sales. Just like the new CEO change the gamepass price, they can change the xbox price and eat the cost. Put it back at the launch prices, alongside with big ramp up in the production, delay the helix until end of 2028 (if it's not it's target as of now) and you got a turn over for the remaining 2 years and a half for the Series. With all of that it can reach even 50M.
