Microsoft and other video gaming?

I have always wanted to know all the video game systems ever created by microsoft and other companies. now if you only have sony and nintendo consoles in mind go to my profile and answer the question sony or nintedo. but if you have a console that was a big hit and wasn't sony nintendo or microsoft then name it here. ten points to the person who does(handheld and portables too)

Microsoft and other video gaming?
The only consoles that Microsoft ever made was the Xbox (2001) and the Xbox 360 (2005, I think). There are rumors about an Xbox portable, but nothing's been confirmed.





However, they've been making games for years. I think their first big hit was Microsoft Flight Simulator, which started in the early to mid nineties.

Microsoft has only ever had the Xbox in it's video game division, and only since 2001 or 2002.
