In a recent report to shareholders, in which among other things was announced the closure of over 150 stores, GameStop chain CEO Tony Bartel spent itself in extremely optimistic statements against Project Scorpio , Microsoft's "Xbox One enhanced" coming later this year.

Bartel explained that the company is very impressed by Project Scorpio , calling it a powerful console gamer-friendly , that is completely focused on the players, which had also expressed in the past even Phil Spencer, explaining that the new console was a "premium" product dedicated to players who wanted the best of the best in their gaming experience.

In short, it seems that the new hardware starts to convince retail world also positively, and this is no small accomplishment given that these are the people who will then pull (or at least facilitate) the commercial success in stores.

Now we just hope that the console-with its plays-is shown as soon as possible and that convinces us too! At most we will have to wait for just under three months, when it will be shown at E3.
