no, X1 is a failure, not "Wii U" failure, but a failure.
Imean, even MS kind of admitted that fact:

Wish m$ did give up! PlayStation and Nintendo is perfectly for the gaming industry as it is. Having an inferior PlayStation in every way is pointless and a total waste!

@ OP, xblox is a failure from a business/real consumers point of view.

I genuinely don't believe the industry is better with developers being more beholden to Sony and Nintendo. MS serves as a direct competitor with with Sony in particular, therefore it encourages Sony to try harder, produce better products, better pricing, etc. If you think Sony would do all of that without a serious console competitor, well you must just assume the best of Sony.

MS has also poured a fortune into the industry to create more content. Whether it be exclusive console games, PC games, or timed exclusives that eventually went to competing platforms. So I fail to see how the industry would be better without MS.
