From what I recall the revenue was down (5%) on the back of slighly less consoles sold but offset to an extent due due to an increase in xbox live subscriptions (Xbox Live monthly active users grew 21% to 47 million). Not a terrible result by any standards. Remember, this is not MS' bread and butter and is more than sustained or offset by incredible revenue and profits elsewhere in its business. MS remain committed to gaming as part of its broader strategy hence the attactive deals thay are prepared to offer. Simply they can afford it. Growth appears to be the plan here.. |
To be fair, Microsoft dosn't has a good profit % when compared to the others software/hardware giants(Apple, Google)
