That's unrealistically pessimistic. While things are looking rough it's gonna be close to 27m by now so reaching 43m in the next few years is still guaranteed. Falling short of 50m will be on the table though depending on how this year goes.

I mean I hope so cos I think the industry is better off when it's more competitive, but XS's YOY drops recently in only its third year have been brutal, it really seems like the wheels are falling off. 

Yeah I did not expect its sales to fall off to this degree, until the end of 2022 happened it looked like it was gonna most likely sell over 60m but that's a pipe dream at this point. If this gen does last a year longer that should help it at least be even with the Xbox One but going forward it's gonna be increasingly tough for Xbox to even reach that level cause built up digital libraries will make getting Playstation users to switch harder and harder and the continued growth of PC will be an issue since a good PC makes having an Xbox redundant. Playstation games come to PC now but the couple year gap for big titles is enough to keep the harm from that down.
