They don’t make money on hardware. In fact they kinda lose money on every console sold. They sell them at cost or a loss for the promise of money coming in from software and services. Microsoft has decided to maximize software and service sales without caring too much about hardware.I feel like they're more afraid of Xbox controlling the PC landscape more than anything. Xbox seems strange to me, it's like they care about the consoles and yet don't care about the consoles at the same time. It seems as though they care more about selling a platform, that's why Phil doesn't oppose the idea of Game Pass being on PlayStation or Switch.
Sony gotta act fast though imo.
Sony’s main strategy is still selling hardware that leads to software/service money.
