Microsoft has shipped 6 million Xbox 360 video game consoles
By
Microsoft Corp. on Thursday said it has shipped 6 million Xbox 360 video game consoles worldwide since releasing the unit about a year ago. The company is “confident” it can meet its target to ship 10 million of its next-generation game consoles by the end of 2006, Microsoft Chief Financial Officer Chris Liddell said in an interview.
In July, Microsoft said it had shipped 5 million Xbox 360s. The software giant, which competes with Sony Corp. and Nintendo Co. Ltd. in the video game console market, said 3.6 million units have already been sent to North America, 1.7 million went to Europe and that about 700,000 went to other regions. Sony’s competing PlayStation 3 and Nintendo’s Wii will each make their debuts in November.
