Xbox One controls near 50% of the American console market, the most important consumer market, has over 200 million in software sales which is massive licensing fees, just had their best November ever, has sold more units than N64, and Microsoft has more money than Nintendo and Sony combined.

 

How do you envision them going under?

How much money they have is irrelevant, obviously. It's never been enough for them to win a gen. It's like arguing about having more weaponry in a war, when the opponent beat you with ease.

Selling video game consoles doesn't determine success, but the games, subscriptions, ect does. For example, technically the ps3 overlap 360 in hardware sales. However, since the 360 controlled United States and U.K. they had a higher software attach ratio. If I remember correctly it was almost 2:1 in 360 favor regarding software attach ratio. United States and U.K are the most important regions by far. If you do well in those regions, you are set. Which is why even if xbox one doesn't sell well in other regions they will be okay.
