Mid-Gen refreshes have been a huge success IMO. XBox One being double this year and on track for its best year ever is mainly due to XBox One X.

PS4 not seeing the usual decline you would expect to see in a system in year 5 IMO also points to PS4 Pro helping offset usual hardware fatigue.

People who said this idea wouldn't work, would splinter the market, wouldn't sell, etc. were wrong.

Ofcourse xbox one X helped, but its not mainly because of it. Matt mentioned that fortnite is the biggest reason xbox one is selling double and also slightly helping ps4(probably ps4 would have had bigger drop this year without it). I dont know how he knows this, but he said it :P.

Crazy to see MLB The show 18 still going strong and Detroit top 10 :o. State of decay 2 had pretty massive drop.

There's no fucking chance XB1 X isn't having a large impact on hardware sales, revenue doesn't magically double, Fortnite is on every system.  Mat also clarified the Fornite hypothesis is more conjecture on his part than anything else.
