Yes... we saw how much MS money helped them crush Steam and win against PS4

Money doesn't fix regular mistakes, but EA going Sony exclusive is never going to happen. MS wouldn't allow it, besides I don't think EA's own licensee partners (NFL, FIFA, NHL, Star Wars/Disney) would be happy with that either. 

I think Scorpio will be great too not just because it'll have the best console hardware but precisely because MS learned some hard lessons this gen, just Sony did last gen. They will be better in the long run by learning from this gen. 

We may very soon discover if the new xbox will have enough traction... there is no guarantee that they will get all games from EA, if their new console plummet they may lose support, but if it sells good enough and/or it's easy to port from PS counterpart or PC them they will get games. And you gone from MS not allowing themselves to lose because they have a lot of money to a very specific point of not being without 3rd party support.

 

What hard lesson have they learned? They seem to be doing just the same they always done as a company. And their internal studios are even weaker than they were on X360,
