We saw a 9% drop for their Xbox division and since then they've brought the launch of the 2tb Slim forward from 29th August to the 2nd of August and are now adding games before they've even tested the water. Next year, as the Scorpio gets closer and closer, people will be more inclined to wait. I'm expecting MS to announce that the Scorpio could be a ridiculously high price in order to try and minimise the affect on the Slim. Their strategy is a train wreck. |
Announcing early wasn't smart in my (and many others) opinion. I wonder what the thinking was behind it. I think they anticipated the Neo will be released soon and attempted a bit of damage control. They deliberately announced some specs to make the Neo look inferior and also announcing first doesn't make it look like they are copying Sony.
