I watched a AGN video with the X post collecting the stuff said by mat about May data.
One of the points was "Xbox Hardware sales were the lowest ever recorded for a may month"

Is that true for our data points too?
Like if you go back throughout the history of xbox hardware, and look at all may months.... is this one the lowest ever recorded?

We don't have OG Xbox numbers, but other than that yes, Xbox Series X|S sales are the lowest May for Xbox hardware. Mat specifically says Xbox, which means he is talking all Xbox hardware sales in May combined. Ie. X360+XOne combined in a single month. 

Raising prices of consoles this late into the gen, is a mistake. 
GTA is going to have to hard carry these consoles.
