The number of consoles sold is irrelevant, only people who care about console numbers are fanboys. Real gamers care more about games and the best possible gaming experience available. The fact that one console sells more than another is meaningless. Big deal a load of random people bought console X over console Y and Z.
If you sell a huge number of consoles and generate an overall loss that is stupid. You will soon go out of business unless you are a huge company like MS. Anyway the shareholder's patience with MS is wearing thin and combined with a gloomy world economy, MS can ill afford to make billion dollar losses in the future in its gaming division.
