These threads remain entertaining for now; eventually they may end up coming off as sad and even out of touch with reality, but I think the XBO deserves the benefit of the doubt through the holiday 2014 season.
I realize the natural tendency is to want to move the goalposts (the turnaround will happen in late 2015, then 2016, etc.), but there isn't much to indicate that the future of the XBO will be any sort of 180; if anything, it could result in MS abandoning the console space for the PC and Windows mobile devices that sync with living room HDTVs.
But to say that the XBO is doing "very well" is more denial than anything else. It has unquestionably performed below MS expectations. To say otherwise would be to claim that their plan for success was to be outsold by their chief competitor by a ratio of 2:1 in the first year with a parallel product launch.
