People wouldn't be happy, but it might actually drive some sales of Xbox consoles again.

Xbox sales wouldn't go up even if gta6 launched today ahead of ps5.

You literally can't find consoles in store in Europe, even city I've been in there's zero stock, and not because they are sold out, because they literally haven't had any consoles in 5 years. 

Ps and Nintendo have entire aisles of consoles and games, Xbox has like 1 shelf at best, and most of that is controllers. 

Xbox will never increase sales until they put their consoles in stores.

But most people would just order from Amazon or whatever, where you have no problem finding one. It’s just not very popular.
