ms makes profits with games, xblive, hardware and accessories.

you just spelt out what i'm trying to tell you. the 360 makes the profit. Most of the XBL members are on the 360, the 360 sells way more games and the 360 sells more accessories. On top of all that it's sold for a tidy profit. 

i'm off to bed but hopefully you've seen the light. 

em no. thats just wrong.
why should the xb360 sell more controllers as example than the xb1, while the console itself sold just 1/3 of xb1 numbers? sure. all 80m xb360 owner out thre just bought a controller for the x360 last quarter. but no new xb1 owner, who need them more, because they dont already own x controller and accessoires.

most xbl member are on 360, yes. but old subscriptions doent make money for ms right now. thats already accounted in previous earnings.
only if u renew right now its making money for ms. and no1 knows if they do it for the xb360 or xb1. because its one subscription for both. and again. thats why its stupid to think its only the x360 that brings in the profits.

 

the only point ur being right, is the games.
yes they sell more games on the xb360 right now. but even that will change this quarter. just look a crossgen sales. more units on current gen than last gen already.
they only sell more overall 360 games, because of the big libary. but as i said. that will change this quarter
