Do you think the Xbox console business is salvageable?

The main point of consoles is not to sell as many consoles as possible but as many games per console as possible. In that regard all Xbox consoles have been very to extremely successful all of them have very high attachment ratios higher than most consoles.

Ps3 : 8.92   , XB360 : 7.5  ,  Wii : 9.05
Ps4 : 13.8   ,  XBone : 6.55  ,  WiiU 7.52  / Switch : 8.94

From the above chart.

I suspect that with the "Xbox Series" the attach rates are lower, due to gamepass.

And  yes... ofc it is still salvageable.

I'm just not sure if their current rumored strategy will be the one that really does it.
Like I am not expecting the new xbox hybrid PC, to sell more than the current "Xbox Series" did.

There are rumors of it being much more expensive than Playstation next gen (ei. ~800$ vs 1200-1500$).
I just don't see how a potentially 1500$ box, goes onto sell like 100m units.

According to Vgchartz, the 360 sold around 1 billion games, surpassing the PS3. There is a lot of unconfirmed data on that list, such as the Vita software number and the Xbox One software number. The Switch number is very outdated, for example, according to Nintendo themselves.
