    Xbox Microsoft's Q1 2025 (fiscal) earnings:

Microsoft gave out by how much Content & Services changed by $ amount for FY19 and FY20. That combined with the percentage changes gives us...

    Xbox Microsoft's Q1 2025 (fiscal) earnings:

    No, they aren't. The final Xbox shipment number was 24.0M end of 2005. Nvidia sent their final GPUs to Xbox in August 2005 and it wouldn't take Xbox more than a few months to produce those into consoles. Microsoft produced and shipped 1.5M Xbox 360's from September 2005 to December 2005 for...

    Xbox Microsoft's Q1 2025 (fiscal) earnings:

    The revenue splits are not guesses. Microsoft gave out by how much Content & Services changed by $ amount for FY19 and FY20. That combined with the percentage changes gives us the C&S and hardware revenue going all the way back to 2014 and up to today. I'm not the only one who's done this and...

    The goal is to increase unionization across the industry and especially within mega corps like Microsoft. After the NLRB review MS will hopefully be compelled to come to the table with what Raven wants.

    Analysis Circana July 2024: PS5 #1 (+25%), Series #2 (+48%), Switch #3 (-44%)

    It's more accurate to say the YOY increase for both consoles were nearly the same, the difference is within 5K. PS5 also had a one week $50 price cut at the end of July which sold a lot. Not saying without the price cut Xbox would've sold more. Just adding context.

    Analysis [Circana] May 2024: 1# Ghost of Tsushima, 2# Paper Mario TYD, 3# Helldivers 2, #8 Shadow of Erdtree; PS5 #1, 2#NSW , 3# XSX

    Discussion Xbox is dying at a rapid pace. last quarter - #PS5 sold 4.5m, Series X/S est 800k. PS5 sold 5.6x more!

    Why do you have XBS below XB1 from Q4 on? We know starting from Q3 to at least Q8 XBS was ahead in shipments. (Q3) Q2 2021: "And the Xbox Series S and X are our fastest selling consoles ever, with more consoles sold life-to-date than any previous generation" (Q5) Q4 2021: "At this point, we've...

    News Xbox fanatics social media meltdowns in regards to 3rd party move and other losses |OT| "When fiction meets reality.

    It's what the $350M hardware revenue roughly translates to. ~7M in sell through vs ~8M in shipments. There's always a gap between the two. Sony shipped 22.7M in 2023 and sell through was >21M Like I said above, there's always unsold units at the end of the holiday quarter, in fact there are...

    News Xbox fanatics social media meltdowns in regards to 3rd party move and other losses |OT| "When fiction meets reality.

    None of my Xbox figures are off 🤷‍♂️ US Q1 2024 was over 600K. All the numbers I've been using this thread were shipments. XBS is not shipping below 6M this year. Like I said, it would require such a massive crash in the holiday quarter that Xbox might as well fast track next gen to 2026...

    News Xbox fanatics social media meltdowns in regards to 3rd party move and other losses |OT| "When fiction meets reality.

    You'd need to show what numbers you're working with to make 40M hard by 2028. I've already said that if next gen is 2026, XBS isn't hitting 50M. 2028, it will. Nothing so far to suggest a decline of 2M or greater per year right now, or that there won't be a year where sales decline slows for...

    News Xbox fanatics social media meltdowns in regards to 3rd party move and other losses |OT| "When fiction meets reality.

    Even a sales curve for 2024 like Q1: 800K Q2: 800K (Microsoft expectations for next quarter hardware is ~$400M, an increase over last Q) Q3: 1200K (Q3 always sees a jump for Xbox) Q4: 2500K (A significant decline that would be catastrophic) would equal 5.4M for the year. 6M for 2024 is going...

    News Circana Feb 2024: Spending +2% in Feb vs YA, to $4.7B. +17% in Mobile content spending vs YA helped offset +, -30% in hardware. PS5#1, Helldivers #1

    That policy started in 2010 and Xbox was publishing their numbers every month after that. The speculation from members back then was Sony being the one to ask that hardware stopped being disclosed outside of publisher PR. Xbox were also giving out numbers for XB1 up to June 2014 while Sony just...

    News PS5 shipments top 54.8 million as of December 2023. Has outsold Xbox Series X/S 2-1, data suggests

    I'm not going to do an arbitrary 33-38M or something like that. It's just a 5M range starting at the mid point of a 10M milestone. I'd either do 30-35M or 35-40M. My post specified that range only works if Gold subs didn't decline.

    So not at all? Thanks. 1M below my range's low end is not a major difference at all. If Bond said 35M you all would still come in here saying "what a clown for even thinking it could go as high as 40M" I know it's been hard for anyone to find legitimate faults with my posts but this is a new...
