Agree. If XB1 sales in Jan/Feb were strong the TF bundle would have been $550. It's just market pressure and response to try to leverage for penetration. After all they need the numbers to be big to make the big strategy work.
Both Sony and Microsoft employ that mass market strategy, whereas Nintendo usually plays a less volatile role. The U was a combination of a risky high BoM product and underperforming sales that combined to hurt them. I expect them to return to profitability soon though, at a fraction of the sales necessary to Sony/MS big dog approach.
