I'm not saying it's the right call for the videogame market, but in my opinion there is sufficient evidence that it's where MS, Apple, Google, Amazon, NVidia, AMD and others have been trying to drag the videogame market towards with different levels of success. Yet consumers flock to it, even thou it runs the exact same software as before. I'm sure that by the time the next iterative Iphone, Samsung TV, or whatever launches, the previous one has not been even tapped put. It's not dissimilar to the approach TV's and Cellphones have adopted to their hardware. Offering a one cloud/native solution, a la Stadia, and the cloud infraestructure doing the heavy lifting could be enticing for developers/publishers to cut costs, and also capturing the "Oh! Shiny" of new software and graphics that people chase with each gen. Game development, as many have stated, is taking longer than ever, an acommodating for diffetent setups is becoming more and more complex. So offering an alternative for different markets might (big "might" depending on Internet and cloud infraestructure) be a way foward. The shortages of this gen, besides the COVID, show that console manufacturers won't be able to keep up with demand forever, or specially during the first few years. Your Xbox as virtual hub in the cloud, and (for those who want it/can afford it) as hardware hub in your home. After the close of ABK this messaging is starting to come up again.Ĭ) Start early on the iterative design of ARM chipsets, working out the best solutions for the hybrid hardware and software solutions needed for BC compatibility, a huge badge that Xbox throws around every now and then (even thou they haven't done anything new since 2021)ĭ) Expand the message of "you at the center of your entretaiment", which has now resurfaced with the "GamePass suscription requiered, no game console requiered". Or even perhaps as visual upgrades not feasable on local hardware (GFN actually does something like this on PC, allowing you to "run" through cloud on settings far higher that what you can achieve on your hardware). Maybe replace the Series X chipset with this new ARM chipset in cloud? Thus offering better cloud options for mobile, lower end (series s/x) hardware, as alternatives in case of exclusive software for this new iteration. They stated something like this when the One X was presented.ī) Expand and improve their cloud infraestructure and offering, which as of now compared to other services is lacking. An ARM console as an iterative upgrade (not a redefining console gen as previous technological hard cuts) of the Series consoles would allow them to:Ī) Not lag behind in terms of power, price and position in regards to the alleged PS5 Pro, even if the device is only aimed at a niche market. From 2018 onwards they have stated reaching 2 billion users that play on mobile, aiming at a market larger than the 250 million (give or take) console users. I probably should have removed the fan and put some new thermal paste on the cpu, but I’ll wait til it becomes a problem and probably throw a new fan in there two if I can get one with the same form factor, the fan can get pretty loud.I see this as probable, but only if Xbox is aiming at changing certain market conditions. Once I put hooked it back up to the TV, and started it up, the Troubleshooting screen displayed, so I just attached a USB stick into the left side usb port with the Offline Update (OSU1.zip only, the box updated to the newest version about a month ago), followed the wizard and it kept all my old games, apps, everything was there and its been great, hope to get another 10 plus years out of it. But the cloning process took 5 hours plus, I think because both the old XBOX HDD and the new SSD were connected to my laptop via USB Sata connectors. I didn’t need to use Linux, did the cloning on Windows with EaseUS Todo Backup 13.0 (free trial), it cloned all the existing partitions and the extra space shows up on the XBOX as usable internal storage. Inside the unit was super dusty, got the dust out with a Hair-dryer and gave the whole board, etc, an alcohol bath with a Q-Tip. Swapped it out with Samsumg 860 EVO 2TB SSD drive on Christmas day. My XBOX One starts up in about 15-20 seconds now, it used to take almost a minute, and apps run and install much faster. My experience was pretty painful, but worth it I think.
