Late last night, Microsoft reported their earnings for the quarter that ended March 31. As usual, they don't share the sales numbers for the Xbox consoles anymore, but there were a few other interesting nuggets.
The sales of Xbox consoles (in dollars, not units) has declined by 26% during this quarter compared to same period last year. This is mostly due to the lower sales of Xbox 360 consoles, but also the fact that there's been discounts of Xbox One according to Microsoft.
Game sales rose compared to same period 2015 by 9%. Microsoft attributes this to Minecraft, and Xbox Live also seems to be doing fine and now has 46 million monthly users. This helped fuel revenue on Xbox Live which rose by 22 percent (subscriptions of Xbox Live Gold and digital purchases).
