Will Xbox Series X/S make it to 40 million?

This is actually really in doubt. The thing is, I would automatically assume it would reach 40 due simply to GTA... but there is now even doubt that Microsoft will even provide the stock. I have heard rumors of Microsoft removing stock across Europe and other regions. So before we can even begin to have this conversation, we have to know if Microsoft will even provide that many units period.

Microsoft killed off Xbox One hardware manufacturing by time Xbox Series launched (which they didn't confirm until a year later), despite the fact that they could've eeked out a few more million Xbox One consoles and hit 60 million units lifetime.

I totally buy that they're already decreasing Xbox Series manufacturing a lot and will probably discontinue it at Xbox 5's launch or shortly after. That is unless they want to keep Series S in stock as a low-budget option (especially for kids or families) because it will probably be under $300 regularly by then even with price cuts not really a thing anymore.
