Just like Sony and how they only ever report on one of the figures…. oh, wait a minute – Doesn’t Sony on Sold, Shipped, Active users and PS+ Subscribers… It seems Sony has nothing to hide, unlike MS. We know there are over 68m unis shipped, over 65m units sold, about 30m active PS+ users and over 80m active PSN users across all platforms.

You have to remember that the active number of users MS reports on include Xbox 360, Xbox one, Windows Phone and Windows 10 store – who have linked their account and bought a game due to requiring an Xbox live account. Also, the Switch and all mobile phones will soon become one of their ‘active users’ due to Minecraft requiring a log-in

That’s why he has started talking about this, the number of ‘active users’ is about to shoot up once the Switch gets the gimped out Mobile version of Minecraft and this is him damage controlling it for when it does.

Right. So at Xbox division meetings talk of sales numbers are banned and they focus only on active users.

I’m pretty sure it’s useful for a company to consider both.

I think it really means (PR/marketing wise) officially to the public they are focused on active users (but behind closed doors they have ever number and stat available).
