Sure not all business decision is right (but for competent companies their research and estimative was that they were doing a good move).

Sure again that it may have been more on sending a message than a sound business decision, but on missing better data I'll go with they have made a good choice (as I also think that even thought it may seem MS will lose money from gamepass, they have done their simulations and will probably earn more than they would on previous model, so if no one have more precises number MS get the benefit of doubt).

People are pointing as if they know it is a bad business decision, so the burden of proof rest on them.

So just like I said, others are "baseless defending", but somehow your own unsubstantiated opinions with zero concrete numbers is not "baseless defending" lol. Also, this move was made like a day after the Game Pass stuff was announced by Microsoft. Hardly enough time to make any sort of informed business decision or conduct adequate research. Hell, the games aren't even in the program yet, lol.

The person you quoted and told was "defending Microsoft" said stuff like this:

It's ridiculous for a video game store to not sell consoles.
More consoles sold = more people games sold.
Games are still sold physically.
It's bad customer service to not offer a console and bad customer service is not good for business.

Do you really need someone to post numbers to meet your "burden of proof" here? It all seems like extremely simply, logical stuff. Disagree with someone else all you want and voice your opinion, but don't act as if your opinion or point of view is any less "baseless" than his.

When you attack the store decision as bad you better have anything to prove it. As much as someone saying game pass is a bad decision from MS should have something to base that on. So on the lack of any evidence supporting the criticism it default to think that the store isn't run by monkeys.
