Forums - Sales - Pachter: “Xbox One Is Likely To Sell 10 Million This Year”

 

Whats your reaction?

Oh no. Its patcher. X1 wo... 121 41.02%
 
Ok. But PS4 will cross 20... 110 37.29%
 
Wii U wont hit 10 million lifetime. 24 8.14%
 
Laughs at the console peasants. 40 13.56%
 
Total:295

It already sold 3 million in 2013, so if its second holiday season can be even as big as it's first (and pretty much every console outside the Wii U/Vita/Dreamcast have had bigger 2nd holidays than launch holidays), it will have to sell 4 million between January and November.

So that would come out to, what... 102k needed per month? That depends on when they drop the price I guess...

102k per week, no?

My guesses.

Jan-Oct: 3.5 million (avg. 90k per week)
Nov-Dez: 2.5 million (avg. 300k per week)



lol the title is misleading even though it's a quote.

10 mil ltd end of 2014 seems realistic.

Not his job to make these predictions. He makes these in his free time so of course no consequences.

Why don't you just marry him already if you like him so much?!

360 did about 6 million, or slightly below, in the first full year on the market. With price cut, some good software and continued advertisement and incentive programs, I can see the One selling perhaps the same as the PS3's first full year (slightly below 8 million). There is no Wii phenomenon to battle this time and the PS4 will never reach the levles of the PS2 in sales or market share.
My predictions are in my sig, I'm thinking the One can be at around 11 million lifetime at Januart 1st 2015, I think they'll have a fantastic holiday in NA and a nice Q4 globally following a much needed price cut.

Believe me I tried. He says our income difference is just too huge to overcome by our love.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Look at my sig.



Must have got an early look and some Jan2014 NPD numbers for him to think that. also if he is correct then the prediction thread is about explode with adjustments.

If rumors are true about Forza Horizon 2,Sunset Overdrive,Quantum Break, Halo 2 anniversary, Halo 5 beta and a price drop between Sept and Dec 2014 I would say this is totally possible. Unless Sony reveals more holiday titles aside from The Order I see X1 being next holidays hot console.
