The Year Without An Xbox: How will Xbox not putting forth an effort to sell Xbox Series consoles this year affect the gaming industry going forward?

Right now it's basically PS5 & Switch 1 & 2 expanding their user base.

Even Portal & Meta Quest is gaining ground from under Series consoles feet.
 
So weird, there have been plenty of years lately of them failing to gain ground but this will be the first where they don't even try
 

Cloud Gaming grew 45%. They aren't worried about selling few more consoles. They just expanded into India, which is the largest gaming market, over 500 million gamers.

For hardware, they are going after the premium hardcore userbase of Pro consoles, with Magnus. Users with the highest spend capacity and usually highest attach rate.
 
Can you expand on this? What objective data are you using?
I mean this holiday the other devices are front & center being bought up for the holidays while Xbox consoles are pretty much sitting this one out.

So just "trust me bro."

If you had data that proved a VR headset and accessory device were selling more because Xbox is selling less, that would have been a more interesting thread.
 
Xbox hasn't really been a thing since the x360 here anyway. MS is a software/service company and it's hardware has always been kinda niche.

The hell are you talking about?

What data do you need other than reality?

Expanding the user base? You mean Xbox refugees seeking asylum on Play Station, Steam and maybe some on Nintendo.

But that's it. Those are the effects of consolidation; the weaker ones go bye-bye.
