Now that we're nearly 5 years in, was Series S a good or a bad idea?

[Soundwave]

It was a good idea tied to a poor brand.

Good ideas are a dime a dozen too, it's the execution of the overall brand strategy which is a lot harder to get right.

By and large I haven't heard much fuss from developers that the XBox Series S is some huge hang up in their dev pipeline. If anything the hardware that devs have as is is too powerful and they're drowning trying to make games for that level of hardware as is.
