Xbox is very popular.

  I'd argue that PlayStation is dominating that segment. And even if we're talking about PC gaming, Xbox wouldn't be the word you'd be thinking of.

    Not sure I'd say 'dominating', they have a 60-40 split IIRC.

      Honestly I think the only reason it's anywhere as close this generation is because of the PS5 supply issues until very recently meant many people gave up and bought a Series X. I don't think it actually has that much to put it ahead of the PS5 other than availability, and the Xbox One generation was such a flop that it seriously dented their network effects

  For perspective, Microsoft has sold around 20 million of the latest generation consoles that have been on sale since early 2021. Back in the iPod’s heyday, Apple was selling 20 million iPods during the Christmas quarter. Apple now sells from 40-65 million iPhones per quarter according to third party estimates.

  In the context of innovation, the original Xbox truly was a trailblazer. Standard PC processors, onboard storage and high-speed networking in every unit, online service subscriptions, downloadable updates and content, game achievements, huge and ugly: the following three console generations have closely followed the path cut by Xbox 20+ years ago.
