Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Do you expect the 360 to have a 40/45 million WW install base by 2012?

It seems the popular opinion here on vgchartz is the 360 will end this generation with worldwide sales in the 40 million range....I think it´s a reasonable prediction, and I agree with it myself.

What about you?...think it´s too low?...too high?...or just about right?

45-50m.



yeah it should reach that maybe more.



 

i think 40-45 million is a safe bet.

end year 23-24 plus 8M 2009 + 5M 2010 + 3M 2011 + 1M 2012.

I would say 40M Max lifetime... unless the tide with PS3 changes and it becomes the dominant HD console seller (I mean weekly not total as it has been till now)

more like 50m



Hell no... 360 won't sell that when 2010 arrives. It'll occasionaly dip below 100k Ww starting with THIS year in late September, just before the holidays.

360 will stall at just a few mils above N64 levels... Think 33-37 million or something like that.

And yes boys and girls... The 360's succesor isn't that far away... Remember; Xbox came in late 2001. X360 in late 2005... If Microsoft follows the same schedule, X720 should be there by 2009... But I'd go with late 2010/Spring 2011. Next year will be the big unveilment!... PS3 and Wii succesor is much later!

Seems good to me.

Hey late 2010 sounds reasonnable.... but the OT said 2012 so for the sake of argument...

It depends on whether or not MS supports it until then. Assuming its still selling by 2012 I think it should comfortably reach 45 million however there may be a couple of variables which could disrupt sales. Time will tell.
