If a new console can't outsell an almost 4 year old handheld on its launch week, I wouldn't call that successful.

It's not alright. Look at 360 first week vs following weeks. The 2nd week was around 1/6th of the first. Then a slow trailoff to another halving or more to the baseline. That same pattern is true of all JP launches to some degree. So you can estimate XB1 sales based on that.                                   23k W1, 4k W2, 1.8k W8, 900 W24, etc.

Whatever. China(or even Shanghai) > Japan for Xbox one launch confirmed.

MS should just pull their resources from Japan and give us Chinese some real benefits.

So they have more pre-orders then they plan on shipping in the first month?

Who said(guessed) that MS planned on shipping 100k first month in China?

Over 95% of Japanese Xbone buyers bought Titanfall? That's insane

There's nothing impressive about barely eclipsing 20k, especially when the 360 managed to sell over 50k I believe. It's even worse when the 360's first week in Japan had fewer days than the X1's first week in Japan...

“100k are being sent at launch.”


I got that from a thread about Xbox China here yesterday. So after doing a quick search on the web, that number seems to be the general consensus as well (Plus Xbox fans on this site are under the same impression). It’s not 100% confirmed but then again for all we know those pre-order numbers above are a wash as well.

How is it that Dead Rising 1 pushed 360's sales so much, but Dead Rising 3 did not?

Logic = Fail

So it's 100k shipped?
