I can't believe it, Xbox One sitting pretty in the top five again. I wonder what the sales breakdown is like? Are they mostly rebuys, New?

We discussed on Twitter a month ago about the possible XBO numbers, if the 2TB SKUs was on August 31 and the others SKUs on September.

Well, now that we know all SKUs are for August 2 (all days tracked by NPD in August), what you predict? Over / under 400k? Maybe 450k?

Only the 2TB is out today. 500GB and 1TB are out on the 23rd, or the final week for NPD. My early prediction is that it'll be the best non holiday month for the Xbox One (so above 311k), but below 350k.

i honestly believe this will be the xbox "destiny month"  
not above 500k, due to only 4 weeks of tracking and the 500gb bundle is just 1 week, but i see 400k

the xbox one s is just a great product, that should attract both current and new xbox buyer.
2 months of preoders. great reviews and word of mouth. new tech is always hot these days with stong initial sales.
and we should not forget the original xbox one. some leftover sales could contribute 50k additional sales. (that thing is still $249)

H2CY2016 should be between 4 and 5 million xbox one sales in the us. up between 10 and 35% YoY

I feel September will be over 500k. It could even beat PS4 Destiny month. With August though, it is heavily dependant on how much stock the 2TB SKU actually has and how far the fat model drops.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

3DS Black at #15. Wonder if will back to the strong level of weeks ago with Black at #7 and Red at #12, would be kinda crazy.

Xbox One could sell more than 500k in September and maybe even beat PS4 September 2014.

Yeah i understand this... but why?

I'm not even sure if XBO will do more than in August honestly, let alone SO MUCH more.

I could see it doing 300k in September but 500k is to much.
