Cloud is driving the increased revenue and profits. It's all over the net.

And that's why I invested in them. Not Bozo Xbox division. Coulda used that 69 billion on someone else...and paying the taxes. :pachaha:

They might as well just become a 3rd party publisher, nothing is going to make people en masse buy Xbox’s at this point. They will never have another exclusive as big as Starfield and the results are underwhelming
No they should not become a 3rd party publisher. They have the money to burn to recover their console business as they don’t need it to be profitable since the main business is. They need to tighten up their ship.

They’ll be third party eventually, ain’t no one checking for their devices and hardware like that.

Way too many users on Sony and Nintendo hardware too ignore and they also have the uphill battle of game pass against steam.

You’re a software company bozos, stick to your strengths

They just aren’t a good hardware company, never have been. Phones, MP3’s, tablets, personal computers, and gaming consoles have all been a struggle for them since the 80’s

Software is the problem here. The argument that they should be a third party software company because they have historically struggled making software is nonsensical. They have clearly invested in shoring up their software studios. You don’t then prematurely abandon that investment.
