No exclusives? It will not sell well.

I most certainly hope that the Xbox One X will succeed. I am no Xbox fan, I don't plan to buy the X or any other Xbox product, probably ever but I'm thinking that if the X fails, Sony will go "Nintendo" on our consumers' asses and say: No need to push the power in consoles in the future for the PS5 cause people don't want to buy powerful systems anyway, let's just change the hood of the PS4, add a little tweak here and there and bam, let's give that to consumers in a couple years and call it PS5.

It seems to be the case; after all, they've spent upwards of two years hyping the X up, why would anyone ever buy the S now?!

By their own admission, the X "isn't for everyone", but their marketing has pushed it as the only Xbox worth buying.
They brought this on themselves

I agree with you here is that MS is more concerned about being a profitable division then winning the console war.  There is absolutly no chance of MS ever catching up this gen unless Sony makes several huge mistakes.  So with that mindset, I believe the X1X is just a reset for MS.  Its not going to set the world on fire, it's only positioned for their core base.  It's priced only for people who want the most powerful system for MS only and 3rd party games and even then the difference over the Pro might not be significant.

Will the X1X be a diaster, I highly doubt it.  My reason why is that it's just not positioned to sell at high volumn.  It will probably see moderate boost from Xbox onwers.  It may get a few over the fense that enjoyed their 360 days and it will be positioned to be the budget console whenever MS and Sony decides on their next iteration.

Everywhere we read the same reasons and it is true. I am also of the opinion. What brings a new Xbox without new great Exclusives games? And games like the new "God of War", "Detroit Become Human", "Death Stranding" and "The Last of Us 2" will be graphic reference. also many Xbox fans put a sign against the new Xbox for these reasons, as I read in the xbox forum. I think the new Xbox this year does not make sense. 2019 comes the right new Xbox-Generation, hopefully it will be better than in recent years..

And my personally biggest problem with the xbox one is: Microsoft has completely abandoned the Japanese games market - all big jrpgs do not appear on xbox one (Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2, Tales of, Star Ocean 5 (& SO4 Port), Bloodborne, Tokyo Xanadu, Atelier, Disgaea, Dragon Quest 11, ect). The Xbox One X has the same concept like the Xone -.-

Of course it will. There is literally no reason to spend $500 buck on that thing.

The console market doesn't care about hardware. They care about games. What console do I need to play this game? That's what people will buy. Which console will get the DLC first? That's what people will buy.

The 1% of Xbox fan base that cares about hardware will buy the XBox One X. That's about it.

Ill buy it, i hate origin and uplay on pc so i buy those games on console and the X1X is going to be a pretty big step from my launch ps4, best case scenario the xbox one x slightly outdoes the ps4 pro but i doubt it, either way it won't change the scape of how this generation is going.

Ps4 will sell best followed by switch followed by xbox one, but thats ok i think they all sell enough consoles and software to justify their place in the market and maybe next generation xbox will do beter, we can hope

I would say your prediction will turn true

Where did you got these number?

Per VGC numbers both HW and SW sales are quite close for X360 and PS3 with PS3 a little in front in HW and X360 a little in front in SW and attach ratio, but nothing close to 2:1.
