I wrote a few weeks back that the console is likely D.O.A. due to coming out against a new PS and Xbox System. Pretty much universal agreement here. I had hate Tweets coming at me from a Fanboy with 18 followers. He kept saying I was being unfair and that the system was not as much as we were saying it would be. I said the cost came directly from their P.R. team so who should I believe? Then he comes at me with all the great retro games. I countered with the fact that most of the games are out for other systems and have been for ages. So his final salvo was "well it looks nice" I said I do not need to drop 300 for an item to gather dust when I can put that to a much better console. He blocked me and a person who agreed with me.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Let me be clear. This is sarcasm

They would be better breaking up what valued assets they still have and put them out to auction for the competition.
There is no more financial gain for them on any trajectory in the entertainment space.
