Wait.

MS are complaining about VGC numbers of 1.3 Million sold within 10 days... When MS have just admitted selling "more than 1 Million"?

What?


IN AMERICA!

So you think MS is planning to ship 5 million Kinect just in America nby the holidays?


Obviously not, but as TheSource pointed out the numbers probably refer to the US.

1m shipped, and 1.3m VGC sold... awesome. No wonder they had to amp up the production, they're selling more than they've shipped.


It is not 1 M shipped, it is 1m sold to consumers.


Nope

Probably not since the 5m target is mentioned aswell as for how long its been live in EU.

Chaining ftw? Unlike the other figures they didn't specifically mention 5M for the US.

I'd reckon since this is Mattrick interviewed, the 1m refers to the USA only. So it would be pretty much in line with our figures as Brett included Europe in the recent update.

Would that also then mean the 5 Million is also in America by years end?

It's worldwide.

''

REDMOND, Wash. — Nov. 15, 2010 — Microsoft Corp. today announced it has sold 1 million Kinect for Xbox 360 units worldwide in 10 days and is on pace to hit 5 million by the end of the year. The announcement comes a week before the biggest selling day of the year, Black Friday, and in the wake of increasing momentum for Xbox 360, which led U.S. video game console sales for the past four months.1''

Also the fact Mircosoft said 1.3 million were favorable yet cautionous about that claim. Now the 1.3 miilion figure may be accurate yet it seems MS is keeping it safe by  just saying "more than a million".

Ok, worldwide it is. Heh more hits on the front page for me. Love November.
