If only Microsoft ever had that position. They’ve been distant third since the Switch 1 came out, distant second from day 1 of the PS4.

  Wrong. You confuse the Xbox console with Microsoft’s overall position as game publisher which includes all of Activision-Blizzard-King, Bethesda, Minecraft, Halo, Forza,… across multiple platforms.
