Problem is that the report claims Xbox sales are weaking this qtr (end September 30th).  360 sales this quarter are very near what they were last year.  Then add the fact that the SKU that had a price reduction was the SKU that is clearly profitable.  So the ratio of Arcade to Pro/Elite would be leaning more towards the clearly profitable SKU.  Then you add in a game in September that is 1st party and may hit 3 million before end of the month.

But in fact, I don't agree with that analyst, I don't question overall profitability of the brand, I just think it's LIKELY that if there are still losses on HW, they are only on Arcades.
