hmmm...39 million around the world?

i am sure the actual sold number is closer to 36 million...

but good try Microsoft.

 

They sold them. They got their money...thats all that matters.




Yeah that is the number shipped to stores, the numbers sold to public is roughly 36.6m



2010 Hardware Sales Predictions

Wii: 20m- Sales will drop, but not by much.

PS3: 13.5m- It sold 12m in 2009, its only common sense it will sell more this year.

Xbox 360: 11m- It sold 11m in 2008 and 2009, I think it will sell the same.

My Fanboy Speech...

Why do you have to make excuses to defend a product that you purchased, but that's the only connection you have to it, you don't make it, you don't lose or gain money on it. I don't see where all of the defensiveness comes in, there is no reason for you or anybody else to feel obligated to defend it. Now I would understand if one of you were a developer for the product and you slaved over said product only to hear somebody call it stupid or a piece of junk. But none of you developed it, none of you are mature enough to realize that. Choosing a product all comes down to preference, you chose said product because it is best for you. Simple as that!

Awesome numbers MS, and great tracking VG Chartz.

XBox 360 continues to sell extremely well, and 2010 is very, very strong. Profits should be great for the company, and even better this year.

With an amazing line-up all year with Reach, Fable 3, and the possibilities Natal (may) bring, it looks like the XBox 360 will have a fantastic 2010.

obviously i know that 39 million aren't sitting on shelves right now, i was wondering if 2.5 million would be excessive at this time of year.  Seems a little high but i'm not sure. 



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

The discrepancy between shipped and sold is a bit too high, looks like VGC undertracked the console in Others.



Currently playing on PS3: God of War III

Currently playing on Xbox360: Final Fantasy XIII

Currently playing on NDS: Chrono Trigger

Does VGC include all other markets in Others?  360 could've probably manage another million units or so through SE Asia imo, and they were leading PS3 in both Thailand and Korea last we heard.  There's other small national markets I wonder about too (is New Zealand included with Australia?  Where's Russia and India?  Middle Eastern nations?)
