Forums - Microsoft - Do you believe XBOX 360 stands a chance to hit 100 million consoles sold??

It effectively has to double what it's taken it 5 years to accomplish.

Outside of NA and parts of EMEAA I'm not sure if it will leave a legacy and continue to sell well like the PS2.

So I'm going to go with no.

Probably not.  But the fact it doesn't seem silly to voice the question says a lot about how well the 360 has sold vs the Xbox.

Depending on Kinect legs, whether it manages to take of more outside US/UK and English speaking regions, and when new consoles are announced I'm thinking anything from 75 to 90 million.

Looking at how much of its sales are US centric I feel that increasing marketshare outside US might be more important than Kinect in terms of what the console's final tally will be.  Obviously Kinect could help that.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Yup, by production's end, it should be around 80-90 mil consoles, that dwarfs the original...



Nope. It probably won't reach 70m, same with PS3.

Really, why come out with this rubbish, you know it isn't true.

You'll probably be eating that post in a year and a half. Both'll reach and exceed 70m.

Yep, will be just another year on the Calender.

In seriousness, it's already on track to do 70 mill by next year, and even if new consoles were to roll out by the 2012/2013 threshold, it would do 70 million at the least.


yeah, I know I'm just being sarcastic. Though I really don't think 100m is in the cards for either machine.
