“I want to talk directly to our customers, why our visions are great for the console gamers. I want to start a little bit in the lead to Universal Windows Platform. We talk about UWP as development platform we are raising for gaming across multiple device. UWP allows Universal Windows Applications to run on Windows 10. Our focus going forward is building out a complete gaming ecosystem for UWA. The things we does is to end the console generations. We're allowing ourselves to decouple our software platform from the hardware platform on which it runs."
“In other ecosystems you get more continuous innovation in hardware that you rarely see in consoles because consoles lock the hardware and software platforms together at the beginning and they ride the generation out for seven years or so.”
“We’ll see us come out with new hardware capability during a generation and allow the same games to run backwards and forward compatible because we have UWAs running on top of UWP. It allows us to focus on hardware innovation without invalidating the games that run on that platform.”
“I’m not a big fan of Xbox One and a half. We’re going to move forward in big numbers.”
