Anyone kinda wonder how long MS is going to stay in the business?

After almost 15 years they really have not made major inroads vs. Sony outside of the US, and it looks like Sony is back to being no.1 in the US too.

Maybe it's time to hang it up, cut a deal with Nintendo that puts Windows/Windows Cloud on their next-gen handheld and console, and stake them to compete with Sony.


X1 is still selling at a faster pace than X360 was. That's progress and I imagine profit. Why would they duck out of a growing market? Doesn't matter if they are number one if their Xbox division is profitable, which it is (correct me if I'm wrong).

I don't want them to leave the business and I doubt they will. The more competition the better.

Totally agree with Reim here. Why would they duck out? In a very strong 2nd place and (probably) profitable? I don't know the numbers as far as profits and losses, but in second place and selling nearly double the 3rd place console... far from life support. Of course M$ wants 1st place and they are fighting hard and spending a lot of money to get it... and failing... and that looks bad and definitely hurts the pocket book a little.. but they aren't losing any sleep and I'm sure in the long run (if not already) they will profit from the One. 

I definitley lean Sony btw. A little light internet stalking would reveal that lol But my brother got a One and so now I'm going to be forced to get one so we can game together, and after playing on his... It's a nifty little console. It'll sit nicely on the shelf below my PS4 (:
