Hmmmm,396$ dollars is the manufacturing cost of the kinectless xbone!1.2m xb1(for November in the USA)by 47$(loss per console)=56.400.000$ loss,in November,in the USA!

Don't forget the bundled games... take another 60 dollars for the 2 AC that were throw away on BF, and we know that the BF 329tag with both games +50 dollar gift card was probably subsized by MS. That will make the loss a lot bigger.

Microsoft doesn't pay Ubisoft $60 per game to bundle it in though. It's like any other business deal, when you buy in bulk, in the millions for example you get a much lower price than the retail price. And if the games were digital (one of them was I think? Not sure) then it would be even less.
Also the gift card thing was an offer from the store, not directly from Microsoft. They do that to get more people to go to their stores over Best Buy, Gamestop and so on.
