superchunk said: @ethomaz That matches the late 2012 rumor of a delay in wafers at that point. With Sony having an obvious day to announce PS4, its safe to assume they are not having the same issues. This leans to the theory that Sony is following a more standard approach which is exactly what exists in the OP. MS specs in the OP are clearly more unique, not as unique as Nintendo, but certainly different. You can take these delay rumors two ways. 1) MS is making sure its really ready before going into production and thus saving everyone from RROD-2. 2) MS is once again going to put out a flawed device at launch and it may be better to buy a WiiU or PS4 first. I hope #1 is more accurate and they either get it fixed or simply delay until it is ready. |
I hope that the #1 too... well MS using three foundries to makes test is good thing... of course more R&D cost to MS but the result is faster.
At the end that can give to us a delay (I think that's not the case) or few NextBox units manufactured for the launch (supply issues like Xbox 360).
