The Japan figure is a straight up lie too, it's 80k LTD and they have it at 150k

Yeah i was thinking it could be shipped but those numbers are way too high so it should be fake.

Guys, the Infographic comes from a French Xbox fan site. The only place that lists xb1 as 36.2 million... Is Wikipedia France. Guess where the citations for those figures come from? VgChartz. Yet the numbers VgChartz shows here are lower. It's speculation at best, dishonesty at worst.

Yeah it seems like the numbers came from the MS House of Fans Program which from a google search seems like a rewards program for hardcore fans so its probably fake.

This is already confirmed fake on NeoGAF. The source for the 36.2 mill comes from Wikipedia, which then goes on to cite vgchartz own numbers.

Which does not have the Xbox one at 36.2 million, so I'm really not sure how VG Charts is supposed to be the source for Wiikipedia.fr on this.

Would get better numbers from the House of Mouse than where these have been digged up from.

Yea, the XBO would have to be selling significantly better than it really is for this to be true. Next time, check your sources.

The XB1 is probably around 30 million sold, or 33 to 34 million shipped. So it isn't off by too much, but a still a bit high.

Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
