Many a people will eat salt once Microsoft brings out games that won't be supported on their 2013 hardware. The Xbonex already brings Xbone games to 4k so what novelty would Xbox 4 add to that.

Technology is not moving faster than it did on previous generations.

The fact console makers are reducing product lifecycles is an alarming sign of the console market decline, since it signals manifacturers are not bringing in more customers but they're sustaining the business by selling more stuff to the same people.

What the hell are you talking about? No one is reducing product lifecycles, PS4 Slim makes up 80% of total PS4 sales, and only 40% of Pro users(20% of total sales) are upgrading from their PS4s. So if you can do 1+1 no way in hell is this about selling more stuff to the same people.

Lmao at "an alarming sign of the console market decline", 7 million PS4s sold in the first 5 months of this year deserves praise, I dunno whether you live on our timeline or just  a very pessimistic person.

Not denying PS4 is doing great, the problem is its great sales are coming at the expense of Xbox market shares. Xbox One is not even 4 years old but its sales are yet comparable to 3DS, an old tired system that is about to be replaced.

Of course Xbox One X is going be sold to current Xbox One user and likely even to PS4 current users. Since Xbox One X is a more expansive product for enthusiasts, it's very unlikey its prospect users haven't yet upgraded to current-gen consoles by now. It's nominally an mid-gen upgrade, in practice is more like a cross compatible next-gen console.
