Microsoft absolutely does not have that comeback kid spirit lol. Whereas Nintendo spent the entire Wii U generation working on course correction measures behind the scenes (and explicitly detailed to investors), Microsoft higher-ups (in particular, Phil Spencer) have gone around, waving their arms, saying “There’s nothing we could have done nor can do. :(“
People in power hold too much pride. It’s a scar to their ego if they confess that they’ve done a poor job at fixing an issue, so they opt to take the easy route of blaming everything else, ensuring a downward spiral.
