Pssst.. i have a little secret for you: Pretty much everything will be more costly a year from now.
The days of chinese laborers working for $100 a month are long gone. Salaries rise, even in China. Shipping costs currently are very low, they are likely to increase again in the future. Raw materials increase in price, too.
Microsoft is not going down at whatever price. I can now walk into a MediaMarkt and buy the Fifa17 Slim S bundle for $249. That's $249 including taxes and store margin. This gives you a rough idea of just how much money MS is willing to throw down the pit.
