That was in 2021.

2022 was actually Xbox's year! (For accessories in the Xbox Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller 😛)

Ok, I’m siked for the new elite three, because possible dac implementation? But am I the only that seems to get controllers with crappy female inputs that I can’t use any of apple headsets or others lol I plug them in and I get this buzzing noise, that I gotta wedge my nail in between the two until it goes away. I if I use my nieces headsets they work just fine.

Even if I payed (which I don't) $180/ year, I'd still say it's good value.
If one isn't a complete slouch and want the service and think it's too expensive, one can do the MS Rewards and get it for free.

What percentage of their subs do you think actually do that?

First time seeing these numbers but wow, PS5 had a huge supply influx in second half of 2022. I am guessing December was even better.

NPD December 2022: #1 MW2 #2 Pokemon #3 God of War; NSW #1 Units (PS5 #2) PS5 #1 Revenue (NSW #2) [UPDATE: Full Report Out]

You expect TOTK to sell 23-25M (which is like 80% of BOTW LTD sales) in 8 months? I mean Splatoon's just done that in the past few months so why not

I wonder how many people have purchased their Series X through the "all access" program? that's how I did it and you pay for 2 years of GPU as part of that deal.
Click to expand...

I did, because that was the only way I was able to find one nearly 15 months after release. I wouldn't be a GPU subscriber unless it was forced on me in order to get the console. It was a better deal than paying scalper prices, including Best Buy charging $200 just to have a better chance in getting one.

Same here, I wouldn't be a GP subscriber either if it weren't for it being forced into that purchase. I'll cancel when the time comes, they don't release enough first party titles to make it worth staying signed up IMO. If they start releasing AAA games on a regular enough basis at some point maybe I'd sign up again but right now any game I want to play I already played before it was on the service.

Other than a handful of more recent games that's how I feel. There's several great older games on GP, but I either own them or played them already years ago. My GPU subscription never had a CC on file, so it never had auto renew enabled when I set up my new account.

I'm still basically getting it for free by abusing the MS Rewards with multiple accounts and buying nearly 50 games so far. 🤫

The Last of Us Part 1 sales jumped 238% after TV show launch | UK Boxed Charts

Fire Emblem Engage takes No.1, but its launch was smaller than the previous game
www.gamesindustry.biz www.gamesindustry.biz

We have our first new No.1 in the UK Boxed Charts, and it is Nintendo with its turn-based strategy RPG Fire Emblem Engage.

The title's launch sales are 31% lower than what its predecessor managed (2019's Fire Emblem Three Houses). The new game has a more anime-style look to the graphics, which may have limited its Western appeal slightly. Yet even so, it is still the second biggest launch for the series in the UK, ahead of cult 3DS hit Fire Emblem Awakening.
 
I do wonder, is Xbox going to close up shop? How can they be DOWN in hardware? I get the lack of first party games in 2022 bringing down content.

I feel MS is shifting to services , and less focus on consoles. Even if Phil says there will always be one , what they are doing kind of shows they are trying to become a service provider for games.

Could be. Game Pass is up so you might be right.
