I want XBOX to be one of the few companies that entertains more than a billion people each day "more than a billion"? What are we doing here? Do you have any idea what your target market is? Surely someone in your organization can provide you with a good stretch goal ... >10% of all humans using an XBox daily is not that. Seriously, I cannot fathom why you would say this. Innumeracy? Narcissistic delusion? Stealth launch for a new industrial human cloning project?

There are approx ~3 billion "gamers" worldwide, why shouldn't Xbox set a goal of 1/3 of them using their platform?

  "Let's go from 1 in 15 gamers to 1 in 3 gamers" sounds nice, probably gonna need employees for that!

    You need the right products and services. If you know what those are, then you need employees to build them. Until you figure out what those are, you are (sadly) better off with fewer people.

      Yeah this lightweight startup could really use some guidance on how to make products with global reach it's a pity they don't have any experience with that.

  Because approximately most of them exclusively play mobile games
  - WorldMaker 3mo ago
    Which to be fair Xbox still owns King and thus Candy Crush.

  I’m guessing 90% of them are mobile gamers exclusively, so no, that is not realistic

  Yet the biggest selling console of all time, the PS2, sold 160 million units.

XBOX here presumably refers to the entire division, so it's not limited to just people playing on the games console.

Candy Crush is probably the majority of that.

Asha Sharma needs to keep her bosses happy. Spinning fiascos as opportunity is standard practice.
