The Australian Xbox One launch was the most successful console debut in the country’s history, according to figures from market research company NPD Group.
65,917 Xbox One consoles were sold in the first three days of launch, more than doubling the previous record of 32,900 held by the Nintendo Wii.
“We attribute a key part of our success to listening to the Australian community,” said Jeremy Hinton of Microsoft Australia. “This led to the inclusion of the Bathurst track in Forza Motorsport 5, entering the Xbox One Racing Team as a wildcard in the 2013 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, through to the launch of local entertainment apps Network Ten's TenPLAY, SBS On Demand, Quickflix and local music, TV and movies within our Xbox apps, right through to TV and voice control support from day one.”
