Yup. It explains both the success of the Switch 2 and the DEATH of Xbox.
Also Nintendo nailed the 3 things that matter in the modern era: execution, distribution and sales.
They put these things directly in the hands of the consumer with their road shows. 'cut the noise' with Nintendo Directs and put Switch 2 offers directly into your inbox if you already had a Switch. There was no waiting in line or even the need to pre-order, you got an email that said: "We've reserved a spot for you, click here to buy it" simple and clean.
Finally there is the execution, it's basically a flawless product for what it is. They didn't sell a roadmap of potential but instead a new open world Mario Kart on day 1 and the system transfer was seamless. No pre-order tier, early unlock bullshit.
Xbox is just confusing as fuck. No one knows what they're buying, what they need or what they own. And all they do is appeal to the noise while failing to deliver on the things that matter.
It's funny how that was also part of the plot in the F1 movie. Brad Pitt telling the rookie social media influencer only the racing matters and everything else is noise.
