Well im dont know what MS will post in revenue or profits because i dont understand anything about that lol

But here´s my prediction for Xbox 360 : 9.2M.

Given they shipped more consoles and likely have productions costs down at least a bit in the last 12 months, along with Windows Phone pulling its weight a bit more this Q compared to last year, I hope profits are up. Was in the $600m range last Q4 right Kow?

cha ching

I predict 360 shipments will be sitting at 66.01 Million.

Such a stupid prediction when you think about it.

Your reasoning is them shipping an extra 400k+ in the first 9 days of January, on an already (apparantly) overshipped status.

And they certainly didn't lie, if that's what you're getting at.

if its 66.01 means we have 2.4M on Shelves WW.

I assumed too, given they said the exact same last year and ended up surpassing it with flying colours.

NPD isn't infallible. I don't put much stock in anything source says, but for those that do, he claimed NPD did had 360 above Wii last Dec, but they whacked another 500k on top at the last minute? Who knows if that's remotely true. I don't think NPD would do that and are that off, but I do think they can be off some 200k~ or whatever.

They're up in the US for the Q, and it wouldn't surprise me if they were up in Europe and the countries they said they were investing in this holiday with better and more advertising. There were literally hardly any consoles out there the end of Q4 last year as well, it's likely they would have shipped an extra 1m last Q4, insted they shipped that in the following Q.

So it's more 360 being up 1m in sales to consumers, and a smaller Q1 as no refilling the channel will occur this time.

also, NPD it's their most trusted source for numbers, since they quote it every freaking month.

I can't see the 360 selling more than up YOY in Europe or Asia when ps3 it's getting bigger each year.

hmm that would put there shippped at 65.6M as many on here prior SAID it was over 66M sold, on there basis of what they gathered from MS CES conference.  what ever the outcome is (i believe near 9M) it will be MS biggest shipment ever and even bigger than anything sony has done this gen as displayed by the graph below
