Just about everyone I know who has the latest gen Xbox had trouble acquiring one. The pandemic messed up the launch of both games and the manufacture/availability of the consoles and unlike the switch and PS5 (which have worldwide popularity), the Xbox just never seems to have recovered because Americans went from a point in time where they had a lot more free time and potentially money (with the stimulus), right back to the grind with stagnant wages and housing crisis etc. Can't say I'm surprised that it's not selling well these days.
