The Xbox One would only need sales of 64k in each market to be at 6.3 (If both were in 50 markets)... I do NOT think the Xbox One would do that.. But I do think it would be much competitve if their was launch parity.  Maybe 5 vs 6.3 mil.

So, in which markets XBO has to launch yet do you expect great XBO sales? Feel free to name several countries.


Who said anything about GREAT sales?? I didn't..   My figure of 5 mil.. would have meant only an average of 32k in those 37 markets in 5 months..  ... Just 6400 consoles a month would have to have been sold in each of those 37 markets to hit 5 million by now..  so 236k a month combined.. each month roughly.     These would not be "GREAT" sales.. but they would surely have been doable.

"Just 6400 consoles each month"... that sounds easy.

According to VGC numbers, Germany sold 13k XBOs in January and 8.4k in February. France sold 14k XBOs in January and 9.2k in February.

So again, which other countries do you expect at least half the sales of some of the biggest and richest European countries? Belgium? Denmark? Finland? The Netherlands? Norway? Sweden? Switzerland? Spain? Portugal? Greece?

And in many of these countries the XBO is already available. Not officially, but international discounters like Media Markt already redistributed some consoles to their stores in these countries.

6.4k a month in these contries are AMAZING sales.

You are locking for some 1-3k a month for country... these 37 markets will added 10-20k weekly for Xbone... like I said all these together since November could add about 500k sales max to Xbone.

Yep, and the 2:1 rough ratio is absolutely true, week by week (except for one week for Titanfall launch, and as we see after a SINGLE week it's already dropped back to 2:1 ongoing).
