Is Microsoft done with consoles after the Xbox One and Scorpio?

No, but the Xboner is going to be the Sega Saturn of Microsoft. I expect the Scorpio to be recieved well, but to sell poorly and convince Microsoft that they just can't cut the mustard when it comes to making gaming consoles.

doesn't matter this gen is over anyway and MS have fairly successfully managed to save some face over the whole DRM thing in 2013. the scorpio and their new "gamers only" target focus will help with that too. it seems sony will also be helping them since they're going to release ps5 in 2018 which will allow MS to start off fresh in a new gen but without releasing a whole new ecosystem. the scorpio will play all of the next xbox's games as it's all within the same ecosystem. sony looks to be starting a whole new ecosystem like a regular console gen e.g. ps2 to ps3 and ps3 to ps4.

it is like the corporate leadership of microsoft went full on retarded.
They wont die because microsoft is too big and this day and age there is fanboyism, but the only way they are coming back from this is iof the scorpio is as powerful as an i7 with a 1080 and is sold at a big loss for them at around 400 dollerdoos for the consumer

I actually got banned the other week for saying this. The Nintendo bias is fucking real.

Also I don't even have an Xbone you cuck mods and have no intention of getting one. Just stating facts.
>>
Everyone acts like this is MS's Dreamcast but it's still selling better then the 360. They would have to really fuck up the next one super hard to consider pulling out.
>>
Xbox is still a decent product. I'm very grateful that the Xbox brand started. They need to recapture the magic of OG xbox if they ever want to compete again.

Wasn't that what the Xbone did to the Wii U?

Even Nintendo admits the Wii U is a failure. Unlike Microsoft with their disasters.

Ask someone who bought a Scorpio anything.
>>
>>378332010
That's not what I saw on here.
Every god damn thread about the Wii U would be desperately shilling what few games it had and downplaying every sales failure despite it having a YEAR head start on the competition.

Also fairly sure Phil Spencer did admit that they were tanking compared to the PS4 (funny how the Wii U wasn't even in the discussion....), and they've readily admitted every fuck up in an effort to get consumer confidence back (and STILL outselling the Wii U).

Like I said, I don't give a fuck about the Xbone and have no interest in getting one, but the hypocrisy of Nintenbros is astounding.

This is actually a good point. I like the DS4, but Microsoft killed it with the xbone controller. Perfect design. Shame it really is only good as a pc controller since bone has no games. I'm not even a hater, I'm an idort with pc, ps4, xbone, and switch. Xbone is just a paperweight. I bought it before I knew every game would be on pc (which is a cool and very pro-consumer move, but shot themselves in the foot hardware wise).

>Is microsoft done with consoles
I explained this to you yesterday. No, Microsoft is not done with consoles. They are interested in dominating the living room, and part of that plan is having a multi media box paired up with every TV. Along with every computer having Windows 10.
>Or released on PC
Their games may as well not be in PC if I can't play it on Windows 7 or 8.1. Their games are still exclusive as far as I and many other people are concerned.

As an idort I regret getting the 500GB S model on sale. I mostly play 360 games and Gaylo 1-3 on it. I dunno why I just didn't buy a regular 360 instead.

>>378329482
>Is Microsoft done with consoles after the Xbox One and Scorpio?
They've been distancing themselves for a few years now. Chances are they're happy with just getting a piece of the pie or they'll pull out eventually. They haven't done jack-shit to secure any exclusives.
>>
>>378332659
we don't know that yet. it's still early days. the original management didn't give a shit about the exclusives but this one seems to. it takes like 3 years at minimum to make a game though so we might only end up seeing some good old style xbox exclusives in a few years or even the next gen if the ps5 comes out next year. e3 will be interesting though. there's at least 1 new IP coming to xbox as said by phil himself.

>Is Microsoft done with consoles after the Xbox One and Scorpio?
Why do you keep making these shitty ass threads about Microsoft done with console gaming. Are you Sony ggers that ass blasted that Microsoft and Nintendo will be the only companies making consoles and video games in a few years? It's already been stated multiple times that Xbox has made Microsoft $6.6 billion, it's time to put this to rest. Also Windows 10 Gaming Store isn't affecting Xbox One sales, dipshit.
>>
>>378332319
Nintenbros can exhibit ridiculous cognitive dissonance but Nintendo as a company are very honest and forthcoming. Funny how the fanbase takes up the duty of bullshit spewing because the company is unwilling to.

You guys must be really retarded or something, it doesn't matter how much of a profit Nintendo and Microsoft is making you would still think they are done with the game industry and console business.

I think you're the only retard here, you can't lie to your investors. Xbox is making a profit so Microsoft is not dropping it or gaming anytime soon. You should be more worried about Sony, their game division is the only thing holding their sorry asses up.

So I would support Sony because they have more at stake, and they don't want to lose their gamin customers.

And MS is not that much newer to the scene, but Sony seem significantly more competent as managing the business.

They make enough that they did a talk about it recently how it's an exploding market that nearly doubles every year, the 360 and bone was profitable, and how Microsoft is not leaving anytime soon.

So watch /v/ claim they are leaving after E3 this year

Gaming is huge but on the other hand that's because of cellphone games, DLC, season passes. It's like saying it's all good when it's really just getting worse and people are playing cellphone games instead of console games. Plus, it's not like you're going to hear a company like Microsoft ever say, "OH BALLS WE REALLY FUCKED UP!" They'll just say they have the biggest whatever, or the strongest console and say they're not worried about it.

Rhe Xbone has sold 30 million consoles. That is double the Wiiu.
More than the GameCube and right behind the N64. It is selling okay. Considering that horrible E3 showing right before it launched, it is doing decent enough.
