From majornelson.com:

Today we announced that by extending the capabilities of the Xbox platform with Kinect and Xbox LIVE, Microsoft has �changed the tail� of the typical console lifecycle, showing dramatic gains in the fifth and sixth years of this generation. (see chart)

 

In addition, we�ve released the following data points:

* Microsoft has now sold 55 million Xbox 360 consoles across 38 countries and sales are accelerating.

* Xbox 360 maintains its lead in the U.S. as the top selling console in 2011, and ten of the past eleven months.

* In the first four months of 2011, Xbox 360 has seen a 29 percent year over year increase in sales, which is more than triple the growth of PlayStation 3 and the largest growth of any console on the market.

* There are now nearly 35 million active Xbox LIVE members worldwide spending an average of almost 60 hours a month on the service.

* Cumulatively Xbox LIVE members are now logging 2.1 billion entertainment hours a month.

 

Next week, we�ll be on stage in Los Angeles for our annual E3 Media Briefing, so be sure to tune in for more announcements.
