Good beginning for the XBox XS, I imagine the momentum is going to become better and better once GamePass and all the adquisitions start really bringing new software.

The June press conference (I guess it won’t be called E3 anymore) for Microsoft will be interesting. I would imagine that’s when we start seeing a more concrete roadmap and hard release dates for a lot of their projects.

I think the X|S passes 20 million this year. By how much I don’t know. Anything higher than 22 million seems optimistic, and being just over 20 million seems pessimistic.
