Xbox One isn't Number One, but that does not equal 'Doing Terribly.'

Don't see why it has to be so black and white.

X1 profitable out the gate (most likely 360 profit is helping) and is outselling 360 in the same timeframe. And this is before MS REALLY gets their act together and releases globally and unbundles kinect. Xbox doing just fine.

When you say profitable i assume you mean just the console itself on a unit by unit basis? Because there is no way in hell the X1 as a whole is profitable yet, considering how much money MS have poured into it. Same goes for the PS4, though i imagine to a lesser extent.

Just pointed out that 360 had nothing to pad its losses in its first few years. X1 has the benefit of having any losses turned into profit by 360's sales now. X1 may or may not be profitable, but at least the XBox brand is, which you couldn't say in 2006.
