All those statement you highlighted are true though so how is MS twisting things exactly?

Well when you compare it to all statements about the last 2 years where they keep telling how the revenue of Xbox division was better than ever, and how they were the best selling console (1) (2) (3)

(1) only in the US

(2) only for a specific month

(3) only amongst "next gen consoles"

it kind of ironic how the turntables can turn when the message should be saying otherwise.

Do you see my point ? If not, it's okay, I believe it's the same kind of battle it is pointless to even have a draw in it. I recall some guy explaining on Twitter that of course MS doesn't share profit/loss of Xbox brand cause it's too much complicated to calculate these things. I believe it's a similar situation here.

Like I previously said, giving your current interpretation of Microsoft statement i'm not in the slightest surprised of your interpretation of past statement.

"Well when you compare it to all statements about the last 2 years where they keep telling how the revenue of Xbox division was better than ever"
Are they wrong, looks pretty much on point to me.

"and how they were the best selling console (1) (2) (3)"
Speaking of twisting words here the actual quote instead of the one you made up.
(From Satya Nadella during an earnings call )
"Our ambition is to empower gamers to play when, and how, and where they want. With our Xbox Series S and X consoles, we have taken share globally for two quarters in a row and we are the market leader this quarter among the next-gen consoles in the United States, Canada, UK, and Western Europe."

"(1) only in the US"
Actually United States, Canada, UK, and Western Europe and unlike you insinuated it was clearly stated

"(2) only for a specific month"
actually 1 quarter and again unlike you insinuated it was clearly stated

"(3) only amongst "next gen consoles"
and again unlike you insinuated it was clearly stated

"it kind of ironic how the turntables can turn when the message should be saying otherwise."
It's kind of ironic how this statement apply more to your own than those by MS

"Do you see my point"
Actually yes you twist past MS statements in trying to justify twisting current ones to show how much MS do twist statements. it ain't working though.

"If not, it's okay, I believe it's the same kind of battle it is pointless to even have a draw in it."
Funny how it become pointless when you can't support your own statement.

"I recall some guy explaining on Twitter that of course MS doesn't share profit/loss of Xbox brand cause it's too much complicated to calculate these things. I believe it's a similar situation here."
Why would I care about a rando on twitter you can't even quote or share a tweet from.
