Another 3.7m is going to be a walk in the park. You seem to forget what it did last Black Friday, or rather you're trying to forget.
TheSource (on 19 April 2012)
Based on the data we have for Kinect...
8m in 2 months (Nov 4 launch, 1m / week in Nov-Dec 2010)
10m in 4 months (250,000 / week in Jan-Feb 2011)
400,000 in March (90,000 / week in March)
10.4m in five months (2.08m / month)
18m through the end of 2011. Ergo, 7.6m in April - Dec 2011 (190,000 per week...even with Nov & Dec included)
...Based on the 18m, Nov & Dec 2011 declined against Nov & Dec 2010.

Put more simply: Microsoft shipped 8m Kinects in 8 weeks in 2010, and then shipped 10m Kinects in 52 weeks in 2011. Currently Kinect is tracking at about half the pace of 2011 in 2012 (set for 5m), so it may not reach quite 20m in sell through by the end of the year.

WoW a giga hit!! the reason X360 is selling beyond
fdo69 (on 14 January 2012)
the new wii sport
Barozi (on 13 January 2012)
aaand adjusted down ~600k or so
Barozi (on 12 January 2012)
adjusted up 500k

Agree with Zim. 2.6 millions on shelves seems too high considering how finely tuned retail stocking systems are now a day.
Seece (on 10 January 2012)
Probably won't get another update until it hits 20m.
Zim (on 09 January 2012)
So just been announced that Kinect is at 18m shipped. 2.6million on shelves seems like a very high amount no? Guessing this is considerably undertracked.
Mr Puggsly (on 04 January 2012)
Another awesome holiday for the Kinect. I think 2012 is going to be another great year if price cuts happen.
gameonbro (on 31 December 2011)
ces watch ms say 20 million kinects have been sold how nuts would that be
gameonbro (on 31 December 2011)
whoa kinect 1 mill this update
pezus (on 30 December 2011)
So a bit above 15m for the year.
Seece (on 20 December 2011)
I think when people are talking about amazing sales, it's more them talking about Kinect rather than this game. ...
Boutros (on 20 December 2011)
@NintendoFanDj Wii Sports is not bundled with the Wii in Japan.
NintendoFanDj (on 17 December 2011)
@paulrage2 actually if every wii sports was bundle with the wii then Wii Sports sales would be the same as current Wii sales.
acdcste (on 17 December 2011)
Yeah thats always going to help sales but still its an impressive number.
paulrage2 (on 17 December 2011)
Every Kinect Adventure is bundle with Kinect sensor. Its like Wii Sports.
Seece (on 16 December 2011)
Above and beyond 15m. They were at 10.4m shipped end of March, no way are they onyl shipping 5.6 over the last 9 months.
pezus (on 16 December 2011)
~15m by the end of the year?
pezus (on 13 December 2011)
Sales will clearly be down a lot in Europe, so I don't expect them to reach last year's numbers
Wh1pL4shL1ve_007 (on 11 December 2011)
This game is alright... Nothing wrong with it but nothing special.. but fun :D
The_Joker_Product (on 09 December 2011)
This is gonna be the best selling Xbox game in 2 weeks.
Seece (on 07 December 2011)
no way are they only shipping 6 mill kinects this christmas, BF has proven it still has a lot of fire in it and it shipped 8 mill last holiday. 10.4 + 6 + whatever its shipped over the last 6 months.
Mr Puggsly (on 07 December 2011)
I'm sure these recent numbers pain all those who said Kinect was doing bad. I'm guessing ~15 million by year's end.
Dinges (on 07 December 2011)
@Blue7x7: MS will drop the price of the xbox 360 and kinect next year. The xbox "720" will come in 2013, so the xbox 360 and kinect will still sell some units after the anouncement of a new console.
Kai Master (on 07 December 2011)
12.04M
blue7x7 (on 06 December 2011)
This is quite amazing how well it's selling I think if MS dropped the price of Kinect by $50 so it would retail for the price of $100 it would see a huge boost outside of the holiday season because $150 is too much for an add on. But still amazing salese. Might possibly hit 13 or 14 million if it continues to sell like this by the end of the year.
Chris Hu (on 03 December 2011)
Just had its strongest week ever in the US should continue having strong sales for the rest of the holiday season.
Mr Puggsly (on 08 November 2011)
Kinect has seen a nice sales boost recently.
yo_john117 (on 28 October 2011)
Looks like Kinect won't quite be the big hit I thought it would be but it's still doing admirably.
Mr Puggsly (on 13 October 2011)
Kinect isn't selling good? For the record it has sold over 3 million this year without the holiday boost. It has even out performed the Wii Fit's first year. That's pretty damn impressive in my book.
Kizmi (on 08 October 2011)
Kinect isn't selling good.
GianCarmen (on 30 September 2011)
Sales have dropped big time. Should be interesting to see how it does for the holidays.
binary solo (on 28 September 2011)
Why are people surprised about Japan? 360 sells ~1000 per week in Japan. Kinect sold ~490 units last week. So roughly half of all 360's sold are the Kinect bundles. You've got to figure people in Japan who buy 360s REALLY want a 360 and they probably want the best of what's available. Which means the Kinect bundle. So I'm not at all surprised that Kinect is selling at a long term rate of about 500-600 per week.
hudsoniscool (on 26 September 2011)
they say that japans numbers are bad but it should do 250k there and thats good from were im sitting
morenoingrato (on 25 September 2011)
O_o Japan
yo_john117 (on 24 September 2011)
This will for sure end up being the 360's highest selling game if they keep bundling it with every Kinect.
Pavolink (on 23 September 2011)
Japan #'s surprise me
postofficebuddy (on 07 September 2011)
What I don't understand is how are the EMEAA numbers even possible? It's averaging less than 5k per week. Less than 10% of 360s MS ships to EMEAA are Kinect bundles? And that's not even accounting for standalone units.
ROBOTECHHEAVEN (on 12 August 2011)
this game is very fun and its a great work out as well. :)
Seece (on 08 August 2011)
Actually pretty fun dsage!
yahoocom1984 (on 28 July 2011)
Yeah its bundled, so does WII sports
Seece (on 07 July 2011)
hudson, awful predictions.
hudsoniscool (on 05 July 2011)
i think by the end of the year it will be at 15 million and by the end of next year less than 20 million
slipknotfan (on 25 June 2011)
Gets old really quick. Love making the living statues swear though
-girgosz- (on 24 June 2011)
This shoudn't be considered as a game but at least we see how Kinect is selling and I'm sure this will have a sequel too.
Seece (on 16 June 2011)
it's bundled, why is that so surprising??
Heavenly_King (on 11 June 2011)
This will eventually sell more than Black Ops....WTF?!
Pirateogta (on 29 May 2011)
9.99M? Oh, what a tease you are, "Kinect Adventures!"
MonstaMack (on 21 May 2011)
Not long before it reaches 20% attach rate for 360 users... not bad at all
godemperor (on 28 April 2011)
Currently 10.4 mil SHIPPED by end of March.
Dinges (on 23 April 2011)
Because Michael Jackson: The Experience gave Kinect sells a boost.
Seece (on 22 April 2011)
non gravity, some deals I think
non-gravity (on 22 April 2011)
How did this jump to 93k this week in Americas? only 10k in EMEAA lol.
homer (on 17 April 2011)
Kinect Adventures losing steam? I expect it to pick up during the holidays though.
TeddostheFireKing (on 15 April 2011)
only 10K this week in EMEAA :/
Pavolink (on 08 April 2011)
Very low score. I'm sure is not a 10 game, but at least a 8-8-5 (for the genre). Is a fun game.
homer (on 03 April 2011)
@Lazthelost Your arguement was stupid, because you claimed population was the problem. That is far from the case, as shown by the fact that there are 127 million people there The population excuse only works in places that do not actually have a large population, which Japan has. Both of us commented on the sales/potential sales of a game we do not own, yet you implied that I shouldn't be here because I do not own the game. That is hypocricy. I do not care if you are biased or not but to ignore these sales, and call someone who notes those sales as biased, is stupid.
Lazthelost (on 03 April 2011)
@ homer - Oh where to begin, lets see. I'm a hypocrite because I posted this: "I'm predicting close to 3 million by the end of 2011!" on Sports Champions wall? Oh maybe it was this: "@ 4k1x3r - What are you talking about? There are Kinect enabled games as well. Harry Potter for example. Come on now." I didn't realize that a reply to someone's statement made me a hypocrite. How did I made a stupid argument towards you? I like how you didn't catch on to my sarcasm. I don't actually believe you should count everyone in a population lol. There is no bias coming from me, I have a PSN trophy level of 14 and 29% the last time I checked. And the USA quip at the end was a pretty stupid observation. I find it strange that you would comment on me using the word America, when you didn't even comment on what I said.
homer (on 30 March 2011)
@ Lazthelost. LMAO You hypocrite. If having a product or not relates to if you can or can not post on the wall and note FACTS, then you are a hypocrite. Why did you post on Sports Champion's wall? At no point did I say that the Kinect had to sell as much as the population. You made up a stupid arguement that suggested population is to blame, but I quickly shot that down, by showing you that population is definately NOT the problem. Now you play the biased card, because you do not know what to say, which is okay, because you have added nothing logical to this debate thus far, although it is never to late to start.:) Lastly, the USA does not make up all of the Americas. I thought surely you would know this, or are you going to ignore this fact too? :P
Lazthelost (on 30 March 2011)
@homer - The United States of America has 311,073,877 people, but your point is? Every member of a population isn't going to buy a video game system, let alone a singular video game add on such as Kinect. If we go by your standard of measurement, then every game has been a failure. The Nintendo Wii has sold a total of 30 million in America as of August 2010. 30 million out of 311+ million is equal to 10% of the population. Just 10 Percent. According to your measurements then the Nintendo Wii is a failure in America. Obviously they could have sold 311 million copies, just like how Japan could have sold 127 million Kinect's. Your argument is ridiculous but then again you don't even own an Xbox360, let alone a Kinect.
homer (on 29 March 2011)
@MrPuggsly. Thank you for being rational and above all, kind. I know my expectations are high for the sales of this device, in fact in seeces thread, I think I predicted it would sell over 25 million by next year. I did not expect high sales for it in Japan, of course, but I was suprised by how poorly it did there. I know the 360 is not a selling well there, but still I expected more for this considering the hype surrounding it.
Mr Puggsly (on 29 March 2011)
I agree with homer in regards to population not being a valid argument. But homer has unrealistic expecations especially considering its a western product. The only way it could be more successful in Japan is if it were made by a Japanese company like Nintendo.
homer (on 28 March 2011)
@lazethelost: Fine, you want to talk here. As of 2009, japan had a population of 127 million. That is the tenth largest in the world, and you claim 150,000 is great sales. That does not fly. Japan is the third largest economy in the world also. These sales do not fly. I know, you will moan and cry that the 360 does not do well in Japan, and that these sales are excellent for the 360 considering the situation, but what it boils down to, is that KA did not sell well in a region that has the potential for extremely good sales, but as I have previously stated, it does not matter because the sales elsewhere are great. Why can't you get that through your head?
Lazthelost (on 28 March 2011)
@homer - Really? Only after 10 posts on Kinect Adventures! wall do you decide you should probably talk about this somewhere else? Strange huh? Everyone is agreeing and saying the same thing I said. It all has to do with the population in Japan. Like everyone said, 150,000 sales in Japan is fantastic! Why can't you get that through your head?
Mr Puggsly (on 26 March 2011)
@ homer - I still say KA is doing pretty well in Japan. Bearing in mind most games struggle to reach 150K in Japan. Also, this isn't end of Kinect sales in Japan as it's still moving thousands every week. Life time numbers there could be well over 300K depending on support from MS and developers.
homer (on 26 March 2011)
Also, if you wish to continue this conversation, I would gladly do so elsewhere, because I do not think that this game's wall would be the most appropriate place to continue bickering.
homer (on 26 March 2011)
@MrPuggsly Why do you feel the need to try to offend me? Regardless of if KA is the most successful western game in Japan, it stilll has done poorly there. Of course, if you read my previous posts, you would have realized that I said it did not matter because it is doing so well in the Americas. Why you are so insecure about this subject, that you feel the need to compare me to a troll, is beyond me.
LordMatrix (on 26 March 2011)
Don`t feed the trolls people
Mr Puggsly (on 26 March 2011)
@ homer - Right, like a troll you're merely focusing where Kinect is doing poorly. I don't think you're even considering very few western titles have even sold 150K in Japan on Wii and PS3. Hence, Kinect Adventures is one of the most successful western titles in Japan this gen.
homer (on 25 March 2011)
@MrPuggsly and @Elvacano80 Both of you know nothing about me, but yet you talk as if you do, and that is sad. Everyone here is so quick to play the fanboy card and troll card when someone notes something. No where in my posts was I negative about Kinect Adventures sales WW, I was merely referring to the Japanese figures which are very poor. If you plug your ears when I discuss these figures and call me names, it is you who needs to get a life and grow up.
elvacano80 (on 25 March 2011)
@homer your sad get a life
Mr Puggsly (on 24 March 2011)
@ homer - In restrospect, I'm not sure if you're Sony fan but you often troll 360. Grow up a little.
Mr Puggsly (on 24 March 2011)
@ homer - Yeah, yeah... ultimately 360 doesn't have enough big exclusives that appeal to the Japanese market and Kinect isn't gonna change that. Sony fans love to brag about the dominance in Japan but ignore NA is more important.
homer (on 24 March 2011)
@Seece. They are great sales for a 360 game/peripheral in Japan, but that is nothing to brag about, because they are still poor sales in a country that has the potential to churn out decent sales.
Seece (on 24 March 2011)
Homer? Put a sock in it. The sales for Japan are pretty good, you can't judge them based on overall game sales for the gen. Else most 360 and PS3 games WW sucked compared to Wii titles. It's a stupid comparison. This has a chance to reach 300k in Japan with the right SW. That's a smash hit for Japan.
homer (on 21 March 2011)
lol. Whatever. Bottomline is, that the sales of each unit is what matters, not the attachment rates. You keep trying to say that the population of Japan is a large factor of the Kinect's sales, yet other games sell extremely well there. Why is it that these games can overcome this population problem you speak so much about? The sales for Japan suck. They are(as I post this) lower than 150 thousand. Other Japanese games sometimes sell this 1st week. If you do not understand this, than it is out of my hands. Anyways, great sales, except for Japan.
Lazthelost (on 20 March 2011)
@homer - You can try as hard as you want to "get me" but honestly I have no idea what you said in that giant wall of text. It was sporadic, it seemed rushed, and it didn't make a lot of sense. I stopped talking to you because you just felt like arguing for the sake of arguing. I made a point and you didn't. Saying that population numbers are "BS", and that attachment rates are quote "@#$%" I lost all credibility in anything you could ever say. You then proceeded on about selling a single console and some other nonsense that wasn't relevant nor made sense. I don't care man, if you can't accept basic economic principles then that is out of my hands. For a smaller population, a good amount of sales isn't going to be as many as for a bigger population. But back on topic, WOW! What amazing Sales!
Nsanity (on 19 March 2011)
Kinect is going nowhere so keep on hating haters.
homer (on 19 March 2011)
@Lazthelost Wow. You have nothing left to say that would prove your point, so you resort to insults. Whatever floats your boat I guess.
d21lewis (on 18 March 2011)
Too much fun!
Lazthelost (on 14 March 2011)
@homer - Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall. Enjoy the ignorant belief that you so fervently propel.
Chris Hu (on 13 March 2011)
The numbers for Japan aren't that bad its the 7th best selling 360 title in Japan already and none of the titles ahead of it are selling anymore so it only can get higher up the list.
homer (on 12 March 2011)
@Lazthelost Lmao. 1st off, your arguement about population is BS. The population is there for the Japanese to sell a large quantity of games. Secondly, attachment rates, while seemingly important, do not mean @#$%. If a console sold 1 unit, and sold 30 games, that would still suck despite it having an average of 30 games sold per console. The same can be said for the % of users using the product. Suppose only 10 consoles have been sold, and 9 contained Kinects. That would still suck because only 9 kinects were sold. My point is, all these fancy % do not mean crap, the number of units sold is the only thing that truly matters in this situation, and these numbers are not pretty in Japan. As for everywhere else, they are amazing, but they still suck for Japan.
Seece (on 11 March 2011)
@ Barozi, yeah went 8.65 to 8.81 to 9.05 then 30k from EMEAA
Barozi (on 11 March 2011)
adjusted up again ? Pretty sure it was under 9m this morning and EMEAA only added 30k
Seece (on 11 March 2011)
@ Maxwell, that's because it'll sell more like a console than a game.
MaxwellGT2000 (on 11 March 2011)
6 weeks to get a million copies sold, it seems to be slowing down a lot, it took Wii Fit a lot longer to slow down to this point.
Seece (on 11 March 2011)
Or this week ;-)
Seece (on 11 March 2011)
9 mill next week?
Pirateogta (on 10 March 2011)
Sold to retailers, not consumers. Nonetheless, Kinect is a massive success. Microsoft predicted 5 million by the end of 2010, and got 8 million! Then they added another 2 million at one of the slowest times of the year. Incredible!
Lazthelost (on 09 March 2011)
Correction, Kinect has sold 10 million. http://www.joystiq.com/2011/03/09/microsoft-10-million-kinect-units-kinect-games-sold/
ArkZero (on 09 March 2011)
It has shipped 10 million, this game is undertracked. Source: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Press/archive/2011/0308-Ten-Million-Kinects
Lazthelost (on 07 March 2011)
@homer - I can see you are trying really hard, but honestly you still can't negate what I said. Look at Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This game is the best selling game on the Xbox 360 and only has a 23.6% attach rate. Do you see your mistake yet? The best selling game on 360 has a 23.6% attach rate. So even if argued that Kinect has a 10% attach rate, like you said, that would be fantastic! Try harder next time.
homer (on 07 March 2011)
@Lazthelost Those are horrible japan sales. You can argue the population nonsense all you want, but it falls apart once you compare it to the sales of other games that managed to overcome this "population"problem. Even if you argue that it has roughly 10% attachment rate in Japan, it still fails because of how poorly the 360 has sold in Japan. Of course, none of this matters because the kinect has fared so well everywhere else.
Kai Master (on 01 March 2011)
Kinect = 2x Move !
scapegoatsqueal (on 01 March 2011)
This is bundled with Kinect, therefore Kinect has more than double the userbase as the Move. lulz
LanceX2 (on 27 February 2011)
This is NOT overtracked, seeing as how this games comes with Kinect and Kinect sold over 8 million. Do the math haters
Lazthelost (on 24 February 2011)
Actually those are fantastic sales in Japan. You seem to forget that the population in Japan is a lot smaller than in Europe or America. Not to mention that this is for the Xbox 360. Those sales are fantastic!
homer (on 23 February 2011)
Did better than I expected in Japan, although still did poorly.
yahoocom1984 (on 23 February 2011)

Massively overtracked...
Lazthelost (on 12 February 2011)
Fantastic Sales! I can't wait to see the lifetime sales at the end of the 360's life-cycle.
Seece (on 11 February 2011)
Doing well!
Mr Puggsly (on 10 February 2011)
@ pukem0n - But would Kinect sell as well without it? I don't think so. Its also the way we can track how awesome the Kinect is doing.
pukem0n (on 10 February 2011)
since its bundled with every kinect sold this isnt surprising
homer (on 04 February 2011)
Impossible. Xbox 360 gamers only buy FPS games.
Shadowblind (on 03 February 2011)
Good fracking frack. Somewhere in the name I'm pretty sure they put the word "Wii" twice for those kind of sales.

Actually Runa it's pretty fun. Not as packed as Kinect Sports but not far off.
Runa216 (on 21 January 2011)
The real question is the same question I have about Wii Sports: who would ever actually pay full retail price for this? It's a tech demo, nothing more.
Barozi (on 21 January 2011)
@dsage01 He's talking about the new slims. It's not poossible for them to RROD.
dsage01 (on 20 January 2011)
toast boy i have a xbox 360 and i got rrod just a couple weeks ago your lucky you don't have that experince
MonstaMack (on 20 January 2011)
Already near 15% attach ratio, but at this rate I think 30% or higher is possible.
toastboy44562 (on 16 January 2011)
no more rrod :)
pslee (on 15 January 2011)
i would have to agree that kinect is really good. i have PS3 and would actually get xbox for kinect. played ps3 move and it was good too. but kinect has alot more to offer for now. how is RROD issues with the new slim 360?

Seece (on 14 January 2011)
@ Puggsly, defo, when it gets a Japanese Centric game it'll get a boost, and continue to get them till end of gen. Kess than 300k at this point seems doubtful, even with the sub 3k weeks coming up.
Mr Puggsly (on 14 January 2011)
Bleh, I wish I can edit, but the point was made!
Mr Puggsly (on 14 January 2011)
Seems to be on track to becoming the best selling 360 game in Japan. They don't have many games to choose from right now either. They don't have as many games to choose from either, so sales should boost when more games roll out.
Seece (on 14 January 2011)
Passes 100k in Japan!
kiefer23 (on 13 January 2011)
Heard all of my female work colleagues talking about Kinect today. Most of them 30-40+ and were talking about which games to buy to keep fit etc. I really think Kinect will sell on word of mouth alone.
toastboy44562 (on 13 January 2011)
nope
non-gravity (on 13 January 2011)
Wasn't this closer to 8 million last week?
Mr Puggsly (on 13 January 2011)
@ ghettoglamour - Casual games found on Kinect are no threat to big budget core games. They mostly appeal to different audiences. Also, you seem to think people are magicly swayed by marketing campaigns so we'll keep buying whatever big budget games publishers tell us to, right? The Wii didn't kill big budget games, the Kinect won't either.
ghettoglamour (on 13 January 2011)
*i meant "my comment"
ghettoglamour (on 13 January 2011)
ok, maybe may comment was a bit unfair. let's say people all around the world can be manipulated SO easily by marketing campaings...the success of kinect really worries me. why should publisher spend millions on AAA titles if they can sell the same or more with some causal stuff, which is very cheap to develop?

I can't wait until that happens. That'd be hilarious and pretty sweet for Microsoft as well.
Mr Puggsly (on 12 January 2011)
@ scapegoatsqueal - It'll probably be the best selling HD game period.
scapegoatsqueal (on 11 January 2011)
this...is going to outsell Reach soon
enrageorange (on 10 January 2011)
lol @ghettoglamour's comment considering its quickly becoming the best selling game in Japan and EMEAA as well. I love it when people stereotype americans. Makes it easy to find who the true idiots are in the forum.
UncleScrooge (on 10 January 2011)
whoops... I was looking for a game actually. Damn wall. I need some sleep :-D

Mr Puggsly (on 10 January 2011)
@ ghettoglamour - Right. Europeans buy anything with race cars and soccer balls. Japanese buy anything with feminine male characters. But for the record, Kinect is a hit around the world.
toastboy44562 (on 10 January 2011)
in 9 weeks since i posted that post. u know what i meant
ghettoglamour (on 10 January 2011)
they could sell shit in a box with a massive martketing campaign and the americans would buy it.
Lazthelost (on 10 January 2011)
10 million in 9 weeks? uh... It has been 9 weeks already. Guess again man.
toastboy44562 (on 09 January 2011)
10 million in 9 weeks i think
dark_gh0st_b0y (on 09 January 2011)
in the end of the day, Kinect turned out really huge, but not as huge as the Wii and it's Nintendo games
haxxiy (on 08 January 2011)
Microsoft really reverse engineered Nintendo with this one. And here's to shallow party games and their money.
account2099 (on 08 January 2011)
now, if u wanna make it big, u need core and casual buying your system. Better late then never MS :P, dont worry, I dont mind sharing with them lol
megaman79 (on 08 January 2011)
Just goes to show doesn't it, the industry is certainly changed forever.
Chris Hu (on 07 January 2011)
Should be in the top five of best selling 360 games in about three weeks.
Kai Master (on 07 January 2011)
8th fastest selling to 6M , it will be 6th to 8th when it reachs 8M : not bad at all !
Bornyn (on 07 January 2011)
Amazing numbers... Fantastic!!
yahoocom1984 (on 06 January 2011)
Looks like this game will be the best selling XBOX game of all time
toastboy44562 (on 06 January 2011)
by september this will be the best selling 360 game
Gearbox (on 06 January 2011)
thats pretty sick! gonna be the best selling xbox game in no time.
Mr Puggsly (on 06 January 2011)
God dayum! Huge adjustment up. That's gotta sting for all the Kinect haters.
GodOfWar_3ever (on 06 January 2011)
shows 7 million sold now.....see ? 8 million shipped.
Potable_Toe (on 06 January 2011)
should it be shipped, i'm inclinded to believe it is actually sold to customer, it can't be less than 7.5 milion or so sold at the least. Eitherway highly undertracked.
Lazthelost (on 06 January 2011)
This is such an entertaining game! It has been awhile since I laughed so hard. 8 million shipped, keep it up Microsoft!
yahoocom1984 (on 06 January 2011)
8 mill shipped, 6 mill sold
Seece (on 06 January 2011)
@ GOW, MS claim they have no inventory. And it's Over 8 mill shipped. I'd say 7.5 mill sold no less.
GodOfWar_3ever (on 06 January 2011)
8 million shipped....but it may as well be undertracked.
matt247 (on 05 January 2011)
undertracked
Seece (on 05 January 2011)
8 mill sold
Edouble24 (on 05 January 2011)
Wii Play takes that crown for the time being
Barozi (on 04 January 2011)
I think if Wii Sports gets reviewed today it would get a similar score, so no.
reviniente (on 04 January 2011)
I don't know if anybody keeps stats on this but, as far as critical acclaim goes, might this be the best selling mediocre game ever?
axumblade (on 03 January 2011)
Almost a million in a week! That's sick! Also, are those legs that are starting to show in Japan for a 360 game?!
Ghazi4 (on 03 January 2011)
just bought this :P
NotStan (on 03 January 2011)
Wow... It's actually increasing in Japan. Probably unheard of for a 360 game, especially 4 weeks in a row.
toastboy44562 (on 03 January 2011)
outsolf gt5 in japan this week lolz
llewdebkram (on 01 January 2011)
Makes me wonder if Xbox owners now insist bundled games count as sales and whether Wii owners will insist bundled games don't count when this makes it to 20M
Gearbox (on 31 December 2010)
@Rawnchie14 - christmas time possibly
Chris Hu (on 30 December 2010)
Good numbers all arround will pass 5 million mark once the rest of the numbers come in for this week.
huaxiong90 (on 30 December 2010)
Excellent numbers, really.
Barozi (on 28 December 2010)
I wouldn't buy Kinect Adventures at full price (it's impossible anyway) because it really doesn't offer that much mini games, but as a pack-in title it's not any worse than the original Wii Sports. Fun game
Lazthelost (on 28 December 2010)
Simply Incredible! I wonder how many copies will be sold by this time next year?
Rawnchie14 (on 26 December 2010)
Japan seems to be picking up steam. Maybe word of mouth with pass, paired with a good Japanese developed game.
Mr Puggsly (on 24 December 2010)
@ spurgeonryan - Its already selling better in Japan than most expected. The Japanese game coming in 2011 could help sales further.
spurgeonryan (on 23 December 2010)
I would call it a hit for now! What will Japan do? Will it get good word of mouth?
toastboy44562 (on 23 December 2010)
adjusted up 140K? or did japan push it to 4 million?
Seece (on 23 December 2010)
Microsoft didn't say how much they'd be able to ship, just their selling expectations. They actually had 14 million camers (2 per Kinect) shipped to them before launch, with another order in Dec and Jan
toastboy44562 (on 23 December 2010)
should be 700k in americas this week
non-gravity (on 22 December 2010)
I remember Microsoft saying they would only be able to ship 3 million, which had later changed to 5 million. We'll see.
Seece (on 21 December 2010)
Oh I forgot Jan 1st sales, it could still cross 6 mill this year :-)
Seece (on 21 December 2010)
Yup, if it stays flat it'll cross 5.3 million, as the figures stand it's likely it'll cross 5.5 mill
toastboy44562 (on 21 December 2010)
ha just noticed that. thanks
Barozi (on 21 December 2010)
no adjusted down 250k. It was at 3.95 last week right ? This weeks EMEAA sales haven't been added yet to the total sales above.
Seece (on 21 December 2010)
@ toastboy - 280k not 500 :-P
toastboy44562 (on 21 December 2010)
adjusted down 500k...
NotStan (on 20 December 2010)
Err yeah they are, usually everything in a 360 box plummets downhill in Japan, these are like the best legs for a 360 game, especially this pricey.
gunslinger (on 19 December 2010)
Japan sales really aren't that surprising.
toastboy44562 (on 18 December 2010)
wow at japan sales
Gearbox (on 17 December 2010)
very impressive.
LordMatrix (on 17 December 2010)
Kinect/Kinect Adventures might hit 6 milion before the year ends at this rate.
huaxiong90 (on 17 December 2010)
This is doing amazingly well.
Strategyking92 (on 16 December 2010)

blue7x7 (on 13 December 2010)
Wow talk about legs. In europe it's 5th week did better than it's launch week. This will definitley hit 5 million by the end of the year if this keeps up

Is it only me or are these JP sales pretty awesome?Could Xbox get the brand recognition it deserves in Japan with Kinect's help?
Bagaren85 (on 10 December 2010)
Great sales, a succes! I see kinect almost very where, friends, family and family centerbulidings.. Madness!

Week 4 was better than launch. Curious to see how it does the rest of the holiday.
QuarantineStudio (on 04 December 2010)

Lazthelost (on 03 December 2010)
Black Fist, I'm sorry you hate having fun.
toastboy44562 (on 02 December 2010)

Seece (on 01 December 2010)
Adjusted up, sold around 900k this week alone.
toastboy44562 (on 26 November 2010)

Lazthelost (on 26 November 2010)
Freaking amazing! I'm really happy for the Xbox division of Microsoft.
ROBOTECHHEAVEN (on 24 November 2010)
very good game and highly addictive as well. :)
Fabius (on 19 November 2010)

AnthonyW86 (on 18 November 2010)
Dropping pretty fast though, i'm curious where it will stabilize after the holidays.

Another 3.7m is going to be a walk in the park. You seem to forget what it did last Black Friday, or rather you're trying to forget.
TheSource (on 19 April 2012)
Based on the data we have for Kinect...
8m in 2 months (Nov 4 launch, 1m / week in Nov-Dec 2010)
10m in 4 months (250,000 / week in Jan-Feb 2011)
400,000 in March (90,000 / week in March)
10.4m in five months (2.08m / month)
18m through the end of 2011. Ergo, 7.6m in April - Dec 2011 (190,000 per week...even with Nov & Dec included)
...Based on the 18m, Nov & Dec 2011 declined against Nov & Dec 2010.

Put more simply: Microsoft shipped 8m Kinects in 8 weeks in 2010, and then shipped 10m Kinects in 52 weeks in 2011. Currently Kinect is tracking at about half the pace of 2011 in 2012 (set for 5m), so it may not reach quite 20m in sell through by the end of the year.
