Hypothetical scenario.

Scorpio has been on the market for one year.

Playstation 4 and Neo continues to outsell Xbox One and Scorpio by 2:1 Worldwide.

Their install bases are as such.

Playstation 4/Neo = 90.000.000.
Xbox One/Scorpio = 45.000.000

What does Microsoft do?

Nothing much, continue pushing UWA and Xbox Live across mobile, Xbox and PC. Focus on software endevours across these platforms.

I don't think Microsoft is expecting Scorpio to drastically change their overall sales ratio compared to Playstation, its not like sony aren't also preparing a premium system which is likely to laucnh before them. But Scorpio should bring them in a lot of profit if they're selling it at a healthy margin and ease them into "next gen." The 2 tier platform approach will essentially negate the need to ever make a loss on hardware.
