| Seece said: Nah, the arcade has and always will be aimed at the lesser core crowd, they can afford to ditch wifi and put in a ethernet cable. I think a HDD will be added, but only enough to do basic things, so a 10GB or 20GB. |
I think the lesser core crowd cares about WiFi, the HDD will be removed as incentive for someone to buy a more expensive SKU. There isn't much wholesale cost savings for MS between a small HDD vs a larger one. The main point of the re-design is lower cost of manufacturing. And they have pretty much milked the $199 introductory price for as long as they can.
