The Xbox 360 is up against two new rivals this year which include the Nintendo Revolution and the Sony PlayStation 3. So far, Microsoft has not been able to win the battle in territories already owned by Nintendo and Sony, which is Japan.

"We knew Japan was going to be tough," said Ballmer, but "I'd still call the launch phenomenal. I think in this generation we can win. I'm not sure we're going to beat Sony in Japan this generation. Maybe. But we're going to beat Sony. We're off to a very good start. We're on track to sell between 4.5 to 5.5 million units by the end of our fiscal year, which is great."
