The Xbox Series X and S sold 20,534 units between November 10 and 15. Famitsu added that pre-orders for both consoles were sold out and it was still hard to get either console at launch, but supply should increase for the holiday shopping season.

In comparison, the PlayStation 4 sold 309,154 units in Japan during its first week on sale in 2014, while the Xbox One sold 23,562 units during its first four days on sale in the country. Back in 2005, the Xbox 360 sold over 60,000 units in its first two days on sale in Japan.
