The problem I believe with a lot of people thinking is that people continue to believe that MS is releasing the Scorpio to beat the PS4 or PS4 Pro. That would be silly as the install base is to big especially for a cosole that will still have a premium price point compared to what is on the market. The key for MS is to have solid sales where the Scorpio will be the base for their next system. MS does not need to beat or exceed the current PS4 or Pro, they just need to sell well, be competitive and gain back their lost 360 fanbase. From there if the Scorpio outperforms the PS4 Pro, performance mindshare does the rest as long as MS can compete on the gaming front. Either way the Scorpio is just a stepping stone.
