Spectral Jester Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Xbox 360 records the biggest week in Xbox history Great news about Xbox sales over the Holiday weekend. Here are the details directly from a notice Microsoft sent to press: Entering the seventh year of its lifecycle, Xbox 360 just closed the biggest sales week in the history of Xbox, selling more than 960,000 consoles in the U.S. during the week of Black Friday. Microsoft’s retail partners are equally excited about our sales performance this holiday. “We have seen tremendous excitement from customers for our hot holiday gaming offers,” said Chris Homeister, senior vice president and general manager of Home Entertainment at Best Buy. “Xbox 360 was among the best-sellers at Best Buy this Black Friday, and is a testament to the continued popularity of the gaming category this holiday.” Sales highlights in the U.S. during the week of Black Friday include: Xbox 360 sold more than 960,000 consoles in the U.S. alone, of which more than 800,000 were sold within a period of 24 hours – the biggest week of sales in Xbox history.
