$249!? If true it will flop, not enough for dropping Disc drive.
It's already possible to find the Xbox1S cheaper than this with the disk tray intact and people aren't biting on that, what would the appeal be of the system in this format? other than the included 3 games I mean... they could just equally pre load the files for Fortnite onto it and would make it more appealing today since that's a free game and kids might poke parents to get the game with it all ready to play (although you need xbox live gold to play on the X1...)
Can always find one under £190 UK. MS have lost it game wise and now price wise.
What a horrible price, if true. And those games cost nothing for MS to put on it. Should have thrown in a 2-4 TB HDD to justify that price. They're going to need it. 1 TB fills up quick.
Retailers aren't going to want to sell this. They make their money off disks not console sales. Consumers won't want to buy it, because the standard XB1 is $250. And around the holidays many retailers will offer a free game with the purchase of a console anyway.
I was expecting a $99 price point if they wanted to actually gain a little market share. I guess this is just a cash grab for people who are already XBox people.
Just gonna point out as well, that one of the "Free" games with this, Sea of Thieves, is completely useless unless you buy a sub to Xboxlive gold. Means that to make use of this less than stellar price you also need to drop another £50 to play the 3rd game.
I really hope this is not the real price of it.
Oh wow, that's a hilarious price. Guess Microsoft only expects to sell very little of these disc-less consoles.
LOL if this is true xD
Finally, I can get another expensive doorstop.
this one is missing the little trash slot at the front :(
Guess this really is a SAD edition.
I like what you did there!
Way too expensive, but like most companies do, you start high and work your way down. I can see this price being adjusted shortly after launch to see what sticks.
So, has Microsoft made a profit on Sea of Thieves...
Does the standard Xbox One S @ $230 also come with a 1 Terabytes worth of spinning rust or 500GB though?
