| Mr Puggsly said: I doubt MS is sacrificing the kind of money on X1 Sony sacrificed on PS3. Sony was losing hundred of dollars on each unit sold and had to do price cuts almost year after year. They were losing billions even while PS2 and PSP were selling in droves. |
That's true, but MS sacrificed billions to buy Minecrfat. 
I think X1 is likely losing money for them due to: $50 cut + bundled 3rd party games + generous trade-in offers + buying off exclusive games. However, due to the fairly "low" sales, losing $100 per-console for X1 is less hurtful than it would be for Sony.
