And if you're cool with your One X, you're still buying games and likely subscribing to Xbox Live and/or Game Pass services as well.

On the show, Spencer said, "'How many consoles do I sell versus how many consoles does another company sell; Sony, or Nintendo, or other companies back in the day?' That’s not our approach. If that was our approach, we wouldn’t put our games on PC. We wouldn’t put our games on Xbox One. We wouldn’t do xCloud and allow people to play games on their phones."
