And at the end of the day, this means they have to sell. Present a deal that is perceived as better than that of their competition. They are failing to do that now in console space, Sony is acting to extend their lead, Nintendo will step up to the plate and make their play, and Microsoft responds with what? Opaque corporate strategy?
If by 'fail' you mean being less successful than Sony than I agree. But I think a real selling point would be a gaming ecosystem where you could buy a game and have it work on any Windows device could be a huge selling device. E.g. Steam++
Microsoft should do what they do best: work on foundation technologies and platforms that gives other manufacturers the ability to provide a variety of hardware. That's not to say Microsoft shouldn't make their own hardware, they should if they can turn a profit and they seem pretty good at it.
