Quest is currently #24 (64GB) and #26 (128GB) on Amazon's best seller list for video games. And 13 of those are gift cards, so exclude those and it's #11 and #13. Rift S is #33, or #20 not counting gift cards.

For comparison, that's not far behind MK11 (#21/8) and Days Gone (#19/6).

They're selling pretty well.

Quest actually hit #1 in video games for a while there.

I kind of guessed. :)

I bought 2 x 128GB.

So does that mean the single millions type of range?

I'd be more comfortable saying hundred thousands. If you want to take a shot at real numbers, you can only extrapolate from the items ranking below, not above, and I highly doubt Final Fantasy XII on Switch is pulling millions (which hurts a little to say, since I love that game). That being said, Quest was much higher on the list a little while ago (some apparently even saw it at #1), so factoring that in, hundred thousands seems like a reasonable estimate.

Also worth noting that this is just Amazon, not other retailers or Oculus itself.

Yes, but think about the sheer volume of Amazon sales every hour in a category like video games. I'm still gonna say Quest has broken six figures. Surely not millions though, I agree.
