XB1 to beat PS4 by 1m before Christmas confirmed /s. Also if it was so close they would have revealed it by now. The fact that we haven't gotten updated sold to customers figures since march this year should tell you the state of things.

I'm sure the 13.5m number was not sold through to consumers.

Yep, they're almost at 10M shipped right now. They should hit 10M shipped at any minute now!
They just couldn't wait to announce it though. It's a pretty big deal.
More like 7M and that's likely beingthat may be generous.
As of the end of september they were at 3.5M sold-through in the US.
The launch period ratio was 1.8:1.2 US versus ROTW, and XB1 sales collasped in most markets outside the US/UK.

PS4 is the more popular console. It would not be surprising for that to continue.
You can be sure Sony's a lot closer to 13.5 million sold through than Microsoft is to 10 million sold through.
Well Eurogamer is running with the PR.

Based to the local store what is it supposed to mean? Do you have some Data?
Wanna talk about porn instead?
LOL that can't be true.
numberwang holy shit lol
Is this some Euro expression?
I meant 10m sold through. The Christmas period will be huge for them, and I don't think they're finished yet.

Is Atari 2600/ C64, pre-Nintendo era considered the start of console generations, "officially"?
We can't be sure of anything, all we have is shipped numbers for both.
That's interesting! So, they haven't yet shipped 10M units but you think they're just about to sell 10M units? Ok!

And the deception is complete:
Still though. As I've been saying since the cut, with Black Friday deals set to get even more incredible for XBO, I do believe Microsoft has the month of November under their belt for a win. That'll give 'em a PR victory they need in any event, since Holiday months are so pivotal. They are clearly playing hardcore hardball, as the deals are insane. They're trying anything to salvage their one real remaining viable territory, and it seems to be having some success as of now. Consumers said this is the price they think the XBO is a value for, I think. I wonder if they'll consider keeping this price for the long term.
PS4's GTAV+TLOU bundle should do quite well for itself, many units sold... but I do think at least November is Microsoft's.

Too bad those titanfall bundles wont sell. No one is playing the game anymore. I wonder if those Titanfall bundles with Kinect are still in the supply chain, if they are discounted?
So folks were estimating sold to retail at 7 - 7.5 based on their quarterly earnings a couple weeks ago:

So around 2 to 2.5 million more stuffed in the channel in 3 weeks?

Speaking of anectodal evidence, I'm in the local best buy of Toronto and they have stacks and stacks of X1's sitting there.

Approximately 10 million must be their shipments for the entirety of Q4 (Oct-Dec); still Xbox One has not sold that many. I'm not even sure it reached in the upper 6 million yet ww.

You'll be surprised.

Competition in of itself is not good or bad, it's neutral. The competition must be worthy of merit for it to be worth anything. No comment on whether XBO is, but the phrase on its face is pretty meaningless. Competition is good sometimes, and when other products fail heavily in the face of some other product, it means the market has spoken - which is exactly how the free market should work.
Sigh.
Over the Christmas period, which is from now untill the end of December, they will pass 10m shipped, and also sell through 10m, in part due to how aggressive they're being. It really isn't that hard to comprehend what I'm saying.

It's just as good of a bunduru as any of the Bone bundles, if not better. Look at the way Unity turned out. Maybe I'm giving online feedback too much sway but that could influence sales.
