Microsoft might get away with weak hardware and still sell well because of other stuff and that makes me sad...

Didn't it die out too fast to even be counted, kind of like the 3DO? Thanks for the reminder though.

The Xbox One, at this point, will likely go on to be successful enough for Microsoft to justify staying in the industry to its investors. The only question I see is, "how successful"? I will admit that they have done quite the turn around and it's definitely something to stick in the history books as a reminder that you're never completely sunk. Alongside the early years of PS3. I just don't feel that they will be able to do nearly the worldwide sales that some people are predicting with even North America being a bitter struggle for them. It will be interesting to say the least.
