With Xbox the software tie is extremely low (like a whole magnitude lower than PS5) Iirc physical software is a few K. It def seems like its being scalped or it could be Gamepass (although GP was available on XB1 and it provided no bump).

There are only less than 7% the amount of PS5 (non DE) of Series X, the only model who can play disc versions. Only "a few k" would still be close to the attach rate of the PS5 when their respective install base would be put into relation.

There's 60k XSX sold with only 2k software on physical iirc .

That's 0.03

PS5 is around 0.5

So no, its literally a magnitude smaller.

There's nothing to suggest Xbox as a brand has improved in Japan, especially when it got a lot worse with many games not even releasing Xbox versions and the launch having no exclusives.

There has only been two things changed: the scalping market and Gamepass.

We'll see which one is the reason soon.
