well then :P
guess I am gladly wrong

(they are gonna lose lots of money though with this)

Are they though? As far as I know this is going to be the standard edition they're selling for $350, most of the AC bundle stock has been cleared out and I don't think retailers are getting more in. It cost less than $400 to manufacture an Xbox One at release, more than a year later you'd think the manufacturing cost would be down to about $350. Not to mention the fact that MS makes money on game and accessory sales and XBL subs. Surely the Xbox division as a whole will still be profitable. 

well according to this

it costed $471 with the kinect

now since it doesnt have it it cost about $371(I think the kiect is about $100 back then maybe a couple dollars more than that but around that range)

so I believe they are losing $21 on it(not as much as I thought which is good but they are still losing money by doing this)
