But it won't. Personally I think they should make  a dumb down "hololense" for Xbox in the 300-400$ range. While the actuall hololense can be around 800-1000$.

Both versions are too damn expensive. It can't cost more than a console or a good pc. It won't sell that well and it'll just be niche. It needs to appeal to as many people as possible. Those prices are too expensive for that to happen.

Then it cannot be hololense, it has to be a VR headset.  Microsoft isn't going to lose 800$ per sale just to make it to the mass market. Its going to be niche for a long time, and its probably going to be almost a 1000$.
