They are consistently down YOY, even with a lot of deals, Last year the console was cheaper but the revenue was Down YOY by a considerable %. What I mean is that they  will not be able to get more costumers regardless of what they do, and that will be better for the Xbox Brand to focus on profit rather than Installbase. They are burning their profit, becoming less reliable for the retailers to order from, with those deals for the Xbox One.

Except they are still selling and therefore clearly getting more consumers. Those sales aren't all for repeat buyers. And you still haven't told me where MS are selling the X1 for free?

I think the point he's making is that by the end of this generation the Xbox One will have sold way less than the Xbox 360 despite MS being way more agressive with deals and pricecuts than they have in the past. So, MS should focus on making the most money possible off of the sales they are getting, rather than blowing all of this money trying to get sales that just haven't come through for them thus far.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
