Its a high end product, its not aiming to make any meaningful dent in PS4 sales.

It ll be 449-499$ (imo), and the hardcore Xbox gamer will be willing to pay it.

By then the PS4pro will be at 349$, and its up to microsoft to make consumers spend 100$-150$ more than the PS4pro costs getting a scorpio instead.

That's a tall ask because it's an experience you can get somewhere else.

The thing about the Pro is that you can play PS games in a 4K resolution, and you can't do that anywhere else. 
You don't need a Scorpio to play Xbox games at 4k. 

Microsoft marketing will be;

Ours does UHD blu-rays, "real" 4k, the only place to play Halo 6.

Might be enough,.... though I dont expect sales to be insane, just like the PS4pro's sales arnt bigger than the PS4slim's.
