Hello all! I am considering using Game Maker to build some basic games and am wondering if games can be published to xBox Arcade or xBox Indie? I'm not sure what format those are in versus what Game Maker's output is. Perhaps HTML5? Thanks!

No. It can export to HTML5 with "Game Maker HTML" or the upcoming "Game Maker Studio", otherwise it exports an executable that won't work on the Xbox

Thank you! Which version is appropriate for mobile apps for Android/iPhone?

Game Maker Studio, but I think you'll have to buy separate extensions on top of the base Game Maker Studio to export to iOS and Android. Currently though it's in a beta (open now apparently so anyone can join). Sometime this week at GDC there should be more information revealed about it
