Meanwhile Nintendo continue to sell their 7 years old consoles for a full price

Very true! my point still stands though, my point was more to help Xbox as their hardware isn't selling well, unlike the Switch which is on track to be the best selling console of all time. I want all platforms doing their best so we win as the gamers and consumers, feels like Xbox cant be bothered with consoles these days as they haven't sold well recently which is such a shame as they finally have a really strong looking slate of games which could help drive console sales if those games were platform exclusive.

taking away a feature and keeping the price point high.

Have they not heard we are in cozzy livs?

By this point previous generations I think companies would be dropping their price point (like PS3) or releasing better console or slimmer console versions to hopefully capture gamers that didn't have that initial buy-in

yea totally agree fam, also find it strange Sarah Bond said all this stuff about preservation but then removes the disc drive from one of their new models which is the opposite of preservation, i feel xbox is now trying to spin game preservation into some marketing win for them when it isnt really preservation they just want you in the xbox game pass walled garden and thats it. While i love game pass, i dont want them getting too powerful as inevitably the crazy price hikes would come in and make it a far less appealing service but by then the competition would be to weak to do much. Also just as a side note wouldn't the 2tb SSD be more useful on the all digital series X than the one with the disc drive?
