The thing I don't understand is why Microsoft refuse to make "pro model of Xbox", something like "Xbox Series M" in order to compete with PS5 Pro. They had XOX in 2017 and as for today they have nothing to offer in upper segment.

Right now, they're looking pretty smart not having a mid-gen refresh. Especially considering how much Microsoft has been struggling to sell consoles in general. There were plans from the FTC hearings for a mid-gen refresh, but I'm guessing they saw how much it'll cost and decided not to.

I'll be shocked if PS5 Pro sells half of what the PS4 Pro did. Which was about 15 million units. 

Yeah, Xbox is focused on what they have, their next console, and PC.

Xbox 5 is tracking for a Holiday 2026 or Holiday 2027 release. PS6 is tracking for a Holiday 2027 or Holiday 2028 release. If Xbox 5 comes out Holiday 2026, there is no point in releasing Xbox Series M or whatever in Holiday 2024 or especially as late as Holiday 2025. 

PlayStation may be blurring the line more and more with Gaming PCs, but there still seems to be a line. Microsoft is content to sell games and services on console and PC, or just PC if that's what eventually happens. Sony's not the one putting their games on other systems. MLB doesn't count because that was hardly up to Sony. 



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)

PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 48 million (was 60 million, then 67 million, then 57 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)
