I'll edit my comment and address the rest later, but as for the bold:

 It's not being twisted into a negative. MS is saying they're sold out at retailers around the world. Retailers around the world are saying "no, we're not". There's no need to twist a demonstrably false statement into a negative. If they would have said something like "we're having trouble keeping up with demand" or "we've sold out in many places" then that is vague enough that it gets the point across and can't be spun in anyway, positive or negative. But to say "we're sold out at retailers around the world", which implies that they are just sold out, period (you can play semantics if you want to by calling it merely  "a simple statement") and these retailers respond with "no", that's akin to saying I'm naked when I clearly have clothes on 

 

OK so can you show me where "Retailers around the world are saying 'no, we're not"?  One clerk at a store does not a retailer make.  They have no way of knowing if they are sold out at every store everywhere. Do you claim they are lying if they say it and someone returns an X1 to a retailer and the clerk says look we have an X1?  



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
