Microsoft, producer of 1 of 4 popular gaming devices, owner of the windows operating system, is in last place?
Yes, they are.
They're currently getting outsold over 2:1 by Playstation. They have tens of millions less service subscribers than Playstation has. They are being skipped by many big third party games. Owning windows doesn't get them any money from games sold on Steam/Epic/etc.
How are they not in last place in gaming? They're last in revenue. They're last in software sales. They're last in hardware sales. They're last in subscriber numbers. They're last in peripheral sales. They're last in.....you get the point.
Sony has a market cap of 76 billion dollars.
Microsoft has a market cap of 1.9 trillion.
Cool, why do you think that's relevant?
Who is the market leader in the video game industry?
Tencent
Let me rephrase the question - who do you think is the market leader in the video game console manufacturer industry? What position out of the "big 3" do you think Microsoft is in?
