For Microsoft, Xbox Series is a success. Some may think not, but the data that is being handled is quite enlightening. Even in Japan , a territory where the brand was practically dead , the new consoles have penetrated again and won the hearts of many users. Also, the Xbox Series S strategy is working quite well for them.

The only problem for Microsoft is precisely the stock, which despite the fact that it is normalizing, is still terrible in many territories. Especially if we talk about the X model, which is usually out of stock for seasons, or is sold at a premium in stores like Amazon.
Xbox Series is a success for Microsoft and the brand
Today we have good news, and that is that according to VGChartz estimates , Xbox Series (both models) would have sold more than Xbox 360 in the same period of time. The sample reaches the first 24 months of life of both machines . I have to say that the data from this service is based on estimates, so rather than the total figures, I prefer the trend, which, although it may not be exact to the millimeter, can give clues as to how the American console is working.
According to the data handled by this website, I insist that they are estimates, Xbox 360 would have sold 12.66 million units, while Xbox Series (both SKUs) would add 17.78 million units in the first 24 months of life. It should also be noted that the data is updated until October 2022.
In addition to stock problems, we must add one more factor that shows that the American strategy is correct. Games on PC. Yes, because Xbox 360 shared some games with PC, while Xbox Series shares all of them at launch , something that does not seem to have affected sales.
