I have a feeling the next console is going to be REALLY interesting. Watching MS mobilize around Xbox this gen has been eye-opening at the lengths they'll go to keep the brand relevant. If they haven't pulled away from markets like Japan, then it means they still have ideas in store. This isn't like Windows Phone, where they're up against competitors as huge as they are, that they can't really outspend them to get leeway in the market. Gaming is different. Nintendo and Sony are smaller in comparison and bowing out against them could be seen as a high-profile loss. Xbox will be here, doing what they do. |
Yep! This is kind of what I tried to say with my comment. Xbox is great marketing for Microsoft, in fact I believe Xbox was originally supposed to be a marketing device for DirectX (could be wrong though)
