Wow... Undertracked by 110k. Incredible.

Maybe we should be listening to BenV more.

Isn't Titanfall just awesome? I've noticed the thread has exploded during the initial release but has slowed down now. Titanfall is to blame!!

I just noticed this on VGchartz's preorder article, don't know how I missed it earlier today:

Xbox One hardware and software sales are expected to increase four or five times.

It looks like they're expecting even bigger numbers than me, a 4-5x hardware increase for Xbox One in the US would be 188k-236k, let alone worldwide. I predicted 200k worldwide for Xbox One next week. Let's hope VGchartz is right on this one.

Titanfall effect!!

There were several people at the local midnight launch I went to getting Xbox One's for the first time. Must expect a lot of preorders here.

Well, if my 200k+ Xbox Ones sold during the week of Mar 9-Mar 15 prediction wasn't likely before the NPD numbers, it definitely seems likely now.

Seems like a too high prediction. I'm conservative with my prediction and say 120k in that week . What is your prediction for the whole month?

120k definitely seems too low to me. The Xbox One sold 67k the last two weeks according to Vgchartz data (very likely higher than that given these NPD numbers), and it sold that much while the Titanfall bundle was available for preorder. During that time the Titanfall bundle was the highest selling Xbox One SKU on every Amazon chart as best as I can remember, which suggests that it should be outselling the rest of the Xbox One SKU's, which suggests that Titanfall bundle preorders should be close to matching the sales for the week of Feb 23-Mar1 and the week of Mar 2-Mar 8, so that's at probably at least 100k preorders for the Titanfall bundle during those 2 weeks. Then there's the week of Mar 9-Mar 15, this week, when Titanfall released, the Titanfall bundle has been ranked even higher this week than the previous 2 weeks (on average), which suggests at least another 50k in sales for the Titanfall bundle, plus sales for the other Xbox One SKU's such as the Standard Edition, which included Forza 5 free in some stores this week, and the FIFA bundle in Europe. So all in all, between the 3 weeks of Titanfall bundle sales plus 1 week of sales for the other Xbox One SKU's, I'm hoping for 200k.

As for March as a whole, I'm hoping for at least 400k worldwide, preferably closer to 500k.

Hopefully you're right. I just don't wanna be too optimistic and be let down by lower than expected sales. February's figures were a nice confidence booster for us Xbox fans though :) .

I'll change my predition to 160k for the week, and 375k for the whole month.

Not just this thread, but the whole forum was buzzing with excitement for Titanfall's release ;) .So many threads with so many comments from people who were 'not interested' in the game.

Yeah, I saw that they added that to Netflix, I might have to watch it since I never have. I did watch the original Clone Wars mini series that Genndy Tartakovski made, it was fantastic. I wonder if the newer show is as good?

I really like it. 6 seasons. Im on 2.
