The name seems to have been leaked via Bestbuy Canada's newsletter: Xbox Scorpio

Smart IMO. The One brand is obviously damaged and people are already familiar with the Scorpio branding, however Microsoft will still have to make sure they properly communicate that all Xbox One games run on it.

When has a gaming company ever launched the name of hardware by the project name?

 

Revolution

NX

Natal

Morpheus

Neo

NGP

Durango

 

All abandoned, I wouldn't count on it.

I see what you're saying, but how many times have companies publicly used codenames for their hardware? Ever since Project Scorpio was announced a year ago Microsoft has been using it quite a lot, I could see them sticking with it.
