Forums - Sales - Xbox makes 10 million!!!

Drats, console race is over, MS won.



Around the Network

M$ sales have seemed to pick up in the last few months. I'm glad for Xbox fans as this will expand the market for Live, but fiscally there is no way I could celebrate this as any sort of success for M$.

I'll celebrate once I see Micro$oft spin some dollars out of their gaming market.

I am curious to see how Halo 3 plays into the 360/ Wii race though. Could prove to be a photo finish for this Summer.

So now Microsoft has reached 10 million and won the generation, are the other two finally allowed to launch their consoles as per their May 2006 claims?

 Technically the first to 10 million could mean the one that reaches it the fastest from their launch, which means Wii since it will probably breach it by september



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)

Congratulations Microsoft. Now is the question: who will reach 15 million first, XBOX 360 or Wii? It depends on holidays, Halo 3 and Super Mario Galaxy I think. Interesting race!

The new generation starts when Sony says so. I didn't hear the announcement yet, so MS won nothing.

You really don't know the answer that question? I suggest you don't bet on horses. The Wii!!!

Thats funny

Wii will reach 15 million before 360 hits 13 million.

Surely the Wii has the better momentum - now. But I dont know, what happens if Halo will be released and in the holidays. Could be enough to be first at 15 mil. I would also think the Wii, but I'm not sure about it.
