No, the 360 sales are way too small to make a third of the xbox one shipped numbers.


What percentage of the total do you think are the 360?


Probably only 1/6th. Xbox 360 sales are pretty much dying if not dead.

It will be well into next year when that happens

1/6 is almost as many 360s were shipped in X1 launch quarter alone..read what I said and guess again.

At least 30%



You know what completely invalidates the article you linked OP? The following sentence: "Microsoft last revealed that they sold 10 Million units back in October 2014..." That sentence is incorrect on 3 places. This was Microsoft's official statement on November 12th (not October): "Shortly, we will have sold in to retailers more than 10 million Xbox One consoles." Shipped, not sold. November, not October. Shortly!

Also, even the article you provided mentions it includes Xbox 360 console shipments.

That number includes 360, which likely accounts for 8-9 million of those 24.5 million.

Not possible, they would have had to ship less than 600K 360s after the launch quarter.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

There's no way they have shipped more than 16M X1s (end of September) and I'm already being generous

US sales of X1 make up about 65% of its totals and it had only sold through 8.1M in the US. So the global sold through couldn't have been any higher than 14M.

The first quarter used for those numbers already includes over 3M 360s..instantly down to 21M. Then add up all the other quartets for 360 and you have the real number (15-16M)


First quarter there alone had 3.5 million 360s, so that's actually down to 20.5 million.

Why do we care how many 360 were on that total shipment? The X1 just needs to win the US to win the generation.

Globally in the US!!!



Are you sure this isn't Vanilla Xbox shipments?
