Something I'll add to the discussion is how big the Xbox One bombed in Japan. Now Japan has always been not much of a factor for Xbox. Xbox One sits at a lifetime 0.12 million hardware units in Japan. Xbox Series S/X is already at 0.10 million hardware units in Japan. The Series is all but guaranteed to pass the original Xbox in Japan, and might give the 360 a run for its money (we'll see).
While this doesn't make the Xbox One a failure as a whole, it highlights how epic of a failure it was in Japan. Even the original Xbox which sold about half worldwide of what the Xbox One did still managed to get around 0.5 million units sold in Japan.
it seems that GamePass is really helping Xbox in Japan.
