Malstrom is usually right, except when he calls 3D Mario and Zelda failures. They are not mine or his preferred iterations of these franchises, but they are far from failures. In this case I think he is right about Microsoft losing money overall with the Xbox brand the last twelve years.
I also believe Xbone will tank with these macro-economic conditions and high price point, as well as it's shoddy hardware history. They will then exit the console hardware business. if this is the case it will prove the sagacity of Nintendo in not fully embracing competitive and coop online. Nintendo will have waited as long as they could and been justified from a risk/ reward perspective for doing so.
