MS do not care about hardware anymore, it is all about subs.

Thanks for sharing.

That's actually what I've been asuming since January '23.

Interesting to finally see someone addressing that point with data. At least the Xbox consoles are really losing traction since the start of 2023, the whole brand not so much due to Game Pass.

If Sony are able to push software output further in the second half of PS5's life cycle, especially with great First Party titles, then PS5 will easily reach 100mill units until the end of 2026 or even earlier.

Would be insane witnessing the Switch going to de-throne the mighty PS2 after almost 20 years, but only to be put into second place again soon after. Again by a Playstation console.

Then again, 155+mill is a very steep hill to climb, even for the PS5.

Growth of the subs (gamepass) is also lagging behind the Q4/Year results for Xbox have been quite lukewarm.

Hmmm that makes me wonder, is there a point where Gamepass subscriptions could reach a similar saturation to the one we see with TV subscriptions and experience subsequent decline ?

The scapegoat FFXVI might see an increase in the US since the bundle is $50 off alongside the other disc bundles.
