After seeing what everyone had to say, and thinking about it I went and looked for some hard fact number's. Who has sold how many in North America from November 2001. I got all of this from the magic box, and everyone I talk say's you can trust them so I will to:

November 2001-
GC: 662,560
Xbox: 722,177

December 2001
GC: 577,499
Xbox: 699,597

January 2002-
GC: 61,685
Xbox: 127,939

February 2002-
GC: 78,413
Xbox: 139,123

March 2002-
GC: 111,236
Xbox: 136,388

April 2002-
GC: 81,935
Xbox: 78,142

MAY 2002-
GC: 111,063
Xbox: 228,914

JUNE 2002-
GC: 213,100
Xbox: 264,618


JULY 2002-
GC: 137,790
Xbox: 154,204


AUGUST 2002-
GC: 128,000 (rounded)
Xbox: 137,000 (rounded)


If my math is correct, from November 2001 until August 2002, Xbox sold 2,688,102 units in North America. Same time frame GameCube sold 2,163,281 units in North America. That's somewhat over half a million units difference.

After seeing those, now I am not so worried about what is being said. Sure, MS is losing $76-$100 pre system sold. Though, with what money they make back on first party game and third party games they should get atleast $130 back from me by the end of the year. Heck some people I know, MS has gotten atleast $250 back from them already. Maybe in the end it'll even out.

Very interesting that Xbox still outsold Gamecube during the launch month for Mario Sunshine. Apparently many people who were waiting for Sunshine already purchased a Gamecube prior to August.


Xbox looks to be a solid #2 for the rest of the year. Not many people thought that Xbox would actually be leading Gamecube in the USA at this point in console sales. The Christmas season should be interesting to watch.



Xbox is teh doomed!

Does PS2, (cough cough), dominate Xbox in total sales in North America?

Yeah, but it was out a year before Xbox and Gamecube. Try comparing sales since then, and it looks paltry. It wouldn't be fair to do it that way. And if you compared all of them from their release, it would favor PS2 since there was no competition when it came out.
