There is a large library of games, especially considering backwards compatibility on top of that. I don't have one myself, but the "no games" argument is nonsense.
It was nonsense when people attacked the Wii U for that, but there was more of a ground there as Wii U had a lot less games overall than Series X/S, even with Wii backwards compatibility.
Now because Wii U had (and has some that never got ported) some exclusives, some people even act like Wii U has more games than the Series which is clown world. It has more true exclusives, but Series has some console exclusives and a massive third-party library.
If you have a Gaming PC, I suppose even a Wii U might've been a more attractive purchase than an Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S. But if you don't. the Xbox consoles blow it out of the water.

As Steve Jobs said: "Because Microsoft has no taste at all". They copy or buy whatever is popular and then they dip it in their soulless corporate salsa. Their only mistake was getting into an "artsy" business they don't have the first clue how to navigate in.

Absolutely mind-blowing that an Xbox console with better messaging at launch and two spec options is slightly behind the Xbox One globally and in Europe.
I guess PS5, Switch, and Gaming PCs are just that popular.

Honestly I think it’s just a brand issue at this point. Benji has been saying this and I agree. I think the brand has just been hurt from the years of negativity surrounding it.
