PHIL SPENCER: DON'T EXPECT A NEW XBOX EVERY TWO YEARS
"I don’t have this desire to every two years have a new console on the shelf", he explained to Game Informer. "That’s not part of the console business model, and it doesn’t actually help us. The best customer I have is somebody who buys the original Xbox and just buys all the games. That’s the best customer for us in terms of the pure financials of it I’m not trying to turn consoles into the graphics card market.
"To be completely honest, I don’t know what the next console is past Scorpio. We’re thinking about it. We’re looking at consumer trends and what the right performance spec and price would be, and , 'Can we hit something that has a meaningful performance characteristic that a gamer would care about?'"
