Sony's PS4 Pro Sales Silence is an Ominous Sign for Scorpio?

I think MS should just market it as a full blown XBox One successor.

Why not? 250 GFLOPS to 1.3 TFLOPS is approximately 5x greater leap, 1.3 TFLOPS to 6 TFLOPS is virtually the same increase in processing power.

Make it upgradable so you can spec match whatever Sony does for PS5.

That would be a mistake. 5.2X and 4.6X aren't virtually the same and the Xbox One was already criticized for not being enough of a power jump.

Plus, as JRPGfan said, they'd bring it to market, and then two years later Sony would release a PS5 that's twice as powerful and wouldn't be hindered by the need to support an older system.

They'd get clobbered.

^ this.

I feel like that could really easily go terribly wrong for MS.

Enough so Id say it would be a mistake to try it.

The Scorpio is going to end up being just like the PS4pro...... same games, higher resoultions, and thats it.

It wont set the world on fire, with its sales rates.

Xbox One Slim will still be the highest selling SKU in the console family.
