Yes ... growth of Xbox to Xbox 360 from 24 million to 100 million is unreasonable imo.
The percentage of non US sales for MS's system is the same for Xbox as it was for Xbox 360. With the strength of the Wii (just like the PS2 vs Xbox) in those non US areas I see no reason for this to waiver other than to get worse. The Wii in the US will quickly catch and surpass the X360 in the US.
Add into the mix the 'unknown' of the PS3 (in Japan a strong 2nd, in EU catching up and in US trailing but 'hopeful') the Xbox360 doesn't have the chance to dominate ANY market like the PS2 did.
As for the numbers I'm using I'm refering to a combo of Wiki and VG but if these historical percentages were too far off I'd have Loaldar or Gaara42 correcting me pretty quick :) .
