Sales after a few years will tell who messed up


Truth


For any other company it would be true...

But when you look at how the release is still months away, and add in the fact that Microsoft has butt tons of cash for marketing... It probably won't mean anything. For who they are trying to sell the console to, the effect of a good commerical during a Football game or during The Voice will do more for the casual crowd then the reveal or E3 anyway.


For any other company? lol

So sales are the measuring point of success and good decision making for other companies, but not for MS? If the console sells well, then they have made the right decisions, that's the bottom line. Businesses need to make decisions to lead to profit and growth, if the X1 achieves both of these things, then MS is justified in whatever decisions they made for their product.

All you're doing is looking for a preemptive excuse in case the X1 outsells the competition, or does better than you expect it to.
