MS 3rd Quarter Results - 33% less Hardware Sold.. increase in gaming revenue from services

[Goukosan 2,250]

"The increase was primarily due to an increase in software and services revenue (+12%), driven by third party title monetisation and subscription growth, which offset declines in hardware" 

 

 

Dat Negative Hardware Growth 

 

 

Fortnite and Services are keeping MS gaming afloat.    No wonder they want they want their games on everything next gen

If you are the top brass of MS looking at these analytical bullet points, they are going to arrive at the most logical conclusion. And that's to go third party.

 

Xbox Live will become what we experience from Uplay whenever we pop in a Ubisoft game into our consoles.

Yes.. those are MS hopes and dreams to have their games on smart phones, tablets and other consoles 

 

 

on another note.... weren't you arguing yesterday that PS4 had a higher percentage decline than Xbox1.... you're wrong again as always

They did, in 2018 they saw a hardware decline of 16% and Microsoft saw an incline of 18%. You're pulling data from the most recent quarter which mind you applies to 3 months of this year, for this year they're down 33%. 

 

Sony was down 16% in 2018 over the course of the entire year plus they're presently down in 2019 by 25% in the US which likely applies universally to a near minded percentage. So realistically Sony with PlayStation has probably seen a larger fall than Microsoft with Xbox over the last year to year and a half.

Worthless stats. We have no breakdown. Gamepass numbers?

You seem to forget that last year Sony sold almost 50% of Xbox1 lifetime sales... in one year 

 

Dat Growth though
