Looks like MS's EAD edged out Nintendo's $627 million profit for the quarter, and by a decent margin at that. Impressive.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

And what does it need to be crack 50 million lifetime Dec 31?

Ballmer did say 50 Million at CES 1st week of January.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.

tee hee...Xbox business may not be a small part of MS's portfolio in a year or two.

6.3 mill sounds low...


With 6.3m shipped and 50.8m by the end of December....well it seems like the 360 has been overtracked significantly over the holyday season and figures will be adjusted.

:/ Now I'm starting to worry what Sony's numbers will be. VGC numbers have been higher for all the consoles so far...

well,if it's 6.3m i think PS3 will still ship more than 360 in this quarter

makes it 50.8m

Which is awful IMO. PS3 has a chance to outship 360 this Q, which means Kinect hasn't been as successful as MS are touting it. The blame lies soely on them, there is something they're doing that's wrong, whether it be failing to break into new markets or w.e

U.S sales are up 1 million over 2008, so that means sales are down everywhere else WW 700k this Q. So Kinect has had little impact elsewhere than UK and U.S ... for some reason

Nah, we have 50.3 sold, 500k on shelves with shortages is legit.

Wasnt it 44.15 mill until and including the last Quarter?

44.15 6.3 = 50.45 mill, not 50.8 mill
