Honestly feel like Starfield is going to be a big test of XBox marketability this gen.

Series consoles are easy to get, so honestly not THAT supply constrained. Series S isn't supply constrained AT ALL and Series X is basically available online indefinitely. MS just doesn't have enough stock to ship to retailers many units, but has enough to essentially feed the online stores of amazon, Target, and others.

It's just not as popular of a platform, by a wide margin. If this brings you some joy as though your team won and you feel like celebrating and "neener-neener-ing" you need to grow up though. (and if this hurts you and you feel the need to spin it, same thing)
Microsoft paid more for priority so obviously they have more stock, also for every failed Series X due to yields they can create two Series S consoles so also of course there's tons of those in the market.

No, regarding the amount of next gen consoles sold, PS is almost x1.6 while the previous gen was above x2 according to MS. The difference is smaller now, but as you mention due to PS5 being very supply constrained.
The previous gen ended with over 2x, but it wasn't 2x around this time frame. It was more like 1.4x. It was only after 20 months that PS4 really started widening the gap.

That is normal because there is always a group of hardcore fans that are more brand loyal and buy their favorite console at or around launch. After a couple of years, though, that group doesn't affect the dynamics as casuals play a bigger role and skew the results their way.

You might as well just do it at this point cuz this place is becoming Nazi Germany and you have like five people registered here. Good luck.
You should just present your source for 15+ million units and be done with it. I'm happy to let bygones be bygones. We can all be adults here.

Comparing this place to Nazi Germany because you have been asked to back up your claims when quoting incorrect figures.
Then you have been politely asked to apologize for insulting people by calling those people Clowns

But according to you the mods are the BAD ONES HAHAHA.

Providing sources for my bold claims and/or apologizing when I am wrong ????!!!
Is this Orwell's 1984, is this place a totalitarian dictatorship now?
When society ask its members to do what is the most inhuman, indecent act...Recognizing your faults...That's exactly how you know we've become nazis...
They were very famous for their second chances giving way of thinking and their hate of bans of course.
That's the problem when you think that people having a different opinions are "the baddies".

Well if this place is a Nazi stronghold according to @DynamiteCop, that makes @Bryank75 Hitler and @VFX_Veteran Eichmann,

Also, on the female front, that makes @kyliethicc Eva Braun and considering how she loves Jurgen Klopp i would say that is more than a coincidence.

And don't forget Hitler was smashing Eva, @Bryank75 is coming for you @kyliethicc.

So much for Xbox or Game Pass "success". PS5 is already at 21 million vs 13 million Xbox Series consoles while PS5 wasn't available anywhere and Series S was on shelves everywhere.

Now imagine the numbers when PS5 is actually available as it's only starting to be... We're back to the last gen ratios or worse.

After Game Pass missing its latest target number, it's a new indication it isn't really successful. It looks like nothing has changed and Xbox is still last place by a wide margin.

It is way too complicated, I think we need to ask @DynamiteCop for a list of all the nazis, but tht raises other problems, who will play the soviets or the english?
And another problem it raises is how do I stand considering I am french, I have the luck to be able to chose my side.

PS5 flying, and not a surprise when you look at the games Sony has been putting out.

Still God of War Ragnorak to come, and then the hype and lead-up to FF16 soon after that.

Meanwhile it feels like Xbox is still only strong in the US, and relatively strong in the UK. Don't think Starfield is going to make the impact they're hoping for either, more for PC crowd if anything.

Whoa, this is kinda entertaining, yet also sad, to see how much people are embodied with how their console of choice sells. Do you guys brag about how much your model of Toyota, sells more than the competing Honda? Or why you prefer pepsi vs coca-cola products? Apple vs Android? Is is THAT serious?
