Microsoft is buying up companies to stockpile IP. Simple as that.

And then they do nothing with that.

Is it still EEE when they're shooting themselves in the foot all the time? Xbox 360 had a good run but then during the cycle they dropped the ball and even got overtaken by PS3 late. One and Series S/X don't matter that much.

Are they shootimg themselves in the foot if they're making record profits?

The gaming division isn't. Last good ride was Xbox 360.
