Is that suppose to be sarcasm? Because it wouldn't make sense if it wasn't. 

Keep hearing people say exclusives don't matter, yet when I check reaction videos,  comments  for Spider-man, God of War, Horizon, etc I see comments of people saying they're going to buy a PS4. 

MS never had many exclusives to begin with, which was fine last gen as Sony messed up by launching a console that was way to expensive at launch and the Cell made it a pain to develop for, resulting in a lot of multiplatform games to ran better on the 360. But despite Sony's terrible start, they still managed to pull through pure on their quality exclusives. Sony learned its lesson though and this gen they got the cheaper console with the better running multiplatform games as well as the exclusives. Not really sure what MS can do to counter that besides investing a shit ton of money in 1st party studios so they can compete with their games instead of software features that nobody really cares about.

Exclusives matters but having good exclusives doesn't asure you sales, and having less exclusives doesn't mean that you are gonna fail. There's other selling points, on software and hardware. That is what a lot of people here seems like don't want to understand.

Make a dirty cheap`console that can run all multis and you're going to sell well, add value to your store/software and you will sell well. Make a beast of a machine well priced and you will sell well.

So,  3 of the 5 examples you gave are Remasters which are easy to release, 1 example is Backwards compatibility that is  in some kind linked to remaster, and 1 game and I'm sure that Sony also had more than 1 game announced close to release.

Forza isn't a example because the game now is a yearly franchise so of course they will announce and release in the same year.

Wrong, the reason why the Vita and the Wii U don't sell well is because (with the Vita) a lot of their releases release on Japan only and Nintendo already have the biggest handheld games tied to their console.

The Wii U have good exclusives but don't have many games and this is the reason why the Wii U is one of the only consoles that stay some months without a single release.

A console can't sell without exclusives, you can't be successful without exclusives, Microsoft is aiming in a very expensive Premium console as their way to push the Xbox One, the only reason Xbox One still exist is because of Microsoft's loyal fanbase of the USA, they have a lot of fans but the Worldwide market's situation is where we should see Microsoft's true position in the console market, Xbox is much small out-side of the USA I don't see how they will sell a Premium console without exclusives Out-side of the USA.

Did you also check every reaction video and comment for multi-platform games? I'm pretty sure that there are also many people saying that they are going to buy a specific system for that game, even if it is also available for other systems.

I'm sorry, what? You think the woman who is in charge of MS first party publishing lied about how many games they have in development to make it seem like they have less going on then they actually do? Despite the fact that her lie doesn't, and won't benefit MS at all?

You're really comfortable with ignoring information taken directly from the horses mouth because it doesn't fit what you HOPE is going on? That is, litteraly textbook confirmation bias.

Edit: Just to be clear, it's still crazy that you were so ready to ignore the given evidence because it wasn't what you wanted to hear.

Our very own Ryuu96 got a reply from Shannon Loftis on the 14 game thing people been going on about, That is 14 games in partnership with external studios and doesn't include the likes of Sea of Thieves, Halo 6, Gears 4 and Forza 6.

Hmm, I stand corrected then. It is weird that she never mentions that it's only external studios though...

So those 14 games include games like Ori, and We Happy Feel ? (I forgot the name).
