So I don’t think the Gabecube takes over every single preorder that would have been a next-gen Xbox, but imo it doesn’t really need to. If anything is the Xbox killer it’s Microsoft and what they’ve burdened it with.

When a trans woman first accused Jeffrey Epstein of rape, the media mocked her - LGBTQ Nation
The New York Post called her a "man" and a "gender-bend shocker."
