I really don't think that will have had much of an affect.

Really ?, why  would  they give their most expensive option a release date and the cheaper not ?.

My guess is because they make more money on the 2TB so they are using this as an opportunity to make people that want a launch day slim buy the 2TB. Clever way to make more money but a bit shady.

Man, Zelda is doing crazy, and that's on Wii U.
It's gonna be insane on NX.

The slim is doing really well. I think the year that the xb360 slim was released the console was up YOY. If that's right the same should happen for the xb1.

Crazy deal on Amazon.fr: XB1 + 6 games at 299€.

XB1 500GB + Halo 5 LE + The division (with steelbook) + FIFA16 + 3 download games (Gears of war Ultimate edition, Forza 6, Forza Horizon 2)
