Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft - 1 Million Kinect Devices Sold so Far

this could either mean

a.) Microsoft is stating number sold to people making vgchartz number very acurate

b.) Microsoft stating numbers shipped making vgchartz numbers way too high,

c.) Microsoft is stating these are numbers shipped in america only making vgchartz accurate

 

imo it's either b or c...

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.

It is clearly Worldwide (if we define world as non-asia..). For the position you have on this website, you should really try to fact check

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.



So the PS3 might've even been ahead of the 360 in the weekly HW sales..

Since it isnt C, and its always shipped.. specially when its just been 10 days, the right answer is B.

Or simply MS does not have the hard data yet showing the actual number sold is in fact 1.3 million but enough to know they have sold over a million.

No matter how impressive Kinect is, i doubt it has a 100% sell-thru.

MS has a lot more money then ioi, i'm sure they have a pretty damn good idea of how much kinect sold so far.  ...and if it wasn't close to 1.3M they would have said something like over 1.5M or over 2.0M since obviously they want to make kinect look as big as they can.  i repeat....llllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmeee

Thing is. MS indicated that VGC numbers were off, and then released a statement claiming 1m shipped, while VGC has it hat 1.3m Sold. Which would require MS to ship atleast 1.5 - 2m. So they actually were right when they told people to not invest too much hope in VGCs numbers, the numbers are too high.



wow so all those guys complaining in the other thread about undertracking are completely and utterly wrong. We're overtracked!
