Not sure what your vendetta is against the Xbox, since as far as I know Nintendo "guys" are neutral toward Xbox "guys", but to say the X1 is a flop is ridiculously inaccurate and completely idiotic. |
People own the Xbox One, but what it took to even get the console in people's homes hasn't been the most sound financial strategy. I'm quite sure MS would have liked the product to sell well based on its features and software. Drastically cutting the price, constant giveaways and putting the games on PC couldn't have been part of the plan. Not to mention adding a 4k player to the current model, already adding to the constant losses for hardware every quarter certainly couldn't have been what MS had in store for the console going into this generation.
I think when it's all said and done, MS will probably be looking at a repeat of the losses they obtained from the original Xbox's era.
