Forums - Sales - 360 to sell 50m through retail by end of 2010? Lets track it......

Well to be honest i don't think it will make the 50 million mark this year but for sure by time January ends. I want to see be time this console cycle ends if the Xbox 360 will have sold 100 million like MS wants it to.


Right now it is nearly 100k ahead of this goal.  On BF, there were shortages all over the US so there are people that wanted but weren't able to get.  With the exception of the immediate week after, December sales for all consoles increases substantially until they peak during the week of Christmas.  So considering all of that, for what reasons do you think it won't reach that mark?  Just a gut feeling?

As for 100 mil, I just don't see that happening.  There's an off chance that the 360 will have its peak year NEXT year (if Kinect is still hot and a long overdue price drop comes), but after that it's likely going to start dropping off.  Its possible, but I see 80-85 as the cap.

If 360 performs like it did last year the about to be reported week will still be above 700K. That would make the 360 about 135K above what it needs to hit 50M by end of the year.  Again all about supply. If they can supply it they can fit it. 



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

NA has to hit 400,000 units for this week to be a success. 4-12-10 so far 265,000 for EMEAA.

Very likely to surpass.  Last year the 360 dropped 33% the week after BF weekend.  Doing the same puts the 360 at over 400K and it is likely that the 360 wont drop that much if at all. In EMEAA the 360 increased WoW.

Well with the adjustments that have to be coming after the NPD results the 360 is certain to break 50 million unless they simply run out.

BF week adjusted up 40k in NA.

America up and with Media Create numbers for Japan 360 will be up an additional 80K.

So looks like 360 now ahead of plan by over 200K.

360 adjusted up 230k, and 80k up on what you expect plus the 90k original, I have it at around 400k ahead. Did I get something wrong?



 

It's going to pass 50 Million for sure !!!

Is your first sentence sarcastic ? Tupac being dead or alive is off topic ... although if you want to discuss then send me a friend invite and PM me.
