Still expect more when the old SKUs are cleared out and the fall pricing/SKUs get released.  Fully expect the new 360 S to get reduce by $50 and new Arcade at $149.99 then the Kinect Bundles as well.  Not to mention it wasnt like it was east to get the new 360 S those 2 days they were on the market for the week in question.  I wouldnt be suprised to see the sales drop the 2nd week because of availability and then increase again this week or next when 360 S is back in stock.


I don't think the 2nd arcade bundle will be lower than $200. However i do think it will come with a 60-120gb drive so its a good deal considering before you didn't get a drive nor Wi-Fi. The slim "elite" should get a price drop to 250 though to compensate and leave space for the kinect bundle.

Not the way HDD are priced.  For fall 250GB HDD will be the most cost effective drive. Why would MS sell an Arcade with a 60-120GB drive that costs more to produce than the model with a 250GB HDD?  If the new Arcade has storage it will be a USB stick 8GB or 16GB based on which is more cost effective.


it will not have USB as it looks cheap to put in a USB for storage when you are buying a HOME console that sits in your living room

Plenty of consoles have been bought without storage all together.  A console with 8-16GB of storage with a USB stick sticking out the back would be perfectly fine. Remember the new model has 5 USB ports.  Think that is for a reason.

yeah alot of console have been bought without storage but it would look very bad to pack-in a USB storage with the device,standalone is alrite if MS do it

 

the new model has 5 USB ports doesn't mean they are for  Storage,how many ports do you use STORAGE for just one if you buy a USB external drive.
