For those wondering about the sales for the Xbox One for the next 2 months - our estimates have it selling 1.76M in November 2016 and 2.75M in December 2016. Our estimates have the Xbox Series X|S selling 1.20M in November 2022 and 1.59M in December 2022. So sales for the Xbox Series X|S will need to be up year-on-year by a decent amount to not fall further behind the Xbox One.

If you had told me at the start of this generation that the Series X|S would be at risk of falling far behind the Xbox One i would have said you're crazy

to be fair though the xbox one came after the 360 and fizzled out towards the end and no one bought the one x.

like I already said in a previous post it is game over for xbox. They got crushed in a year where playstation gave you nothing but a massive price increase on ps plus and only one first party game all year.. Imagine how bad it will be when playstation actually has a good year.

Je comprends que vous ne parlez pas anglais, je vous suggère donc d'utiliser un traducteur, tel que Google Translate. Cela rendra votre communication beaucoup plus facile.

Je suis brésilien et j'ai aussi eu, et j'ai toujours, des difficultés à parler anglais. Google Translate aide à la communication, il est étonnamment efficace dans ce domaine.
Je vous souhaite une chaleureuse bienvenue. J'espère que vous aurez du plaisir à participer à cette communauté.

The PS5 also has massive and continuous price discounts all year, in Sony's bid to get rid of OG PS5 stock to be replaced by PS5 Slims

Methinks that's the one biggest factor that people forget why PS5 is selling a lot this year

Next year the Xbox series will once again be above the Xbox One with the addition of Activision games to GamePass. I believe that the Xbox series still ends the generation with more than 60 million units

No hope of that. Speaking to other Europeans has shown me just how much of a disaster game pass is. There are so many countries Xbox still doesn't officially support which makes digital games off limits. Plus if you don't speak English, Xbox automated translations for games are awful compared to Nintendo and Sony's human translated games.
