I'm guessing most people who can't justify spending $500 on a xbox-x only upgrade their phones every 4 to 6 yrs?
If a person has a PC that can do most of what a xbox-x can do, then no it's not geared towards you. Most people do not have a PC that can do what a xbox-x can do. $499 is cheap for what it does. There's always gonna be a cheaper option for everything from food to cars to entertainment. The market is there. This generation is a anomaly in consoles. PS4 is selling a insane amount compared to any other generation. xbox one is doing fine as well. just not astronomical numbers like the ps4. That does not mean it's a failure. It's stupid to even think that. I like the majority of consumers buy a new phone every 2 years with a average cost of around $700. $500 for a console every 4 to 6 yrs is a very easy decision for me. I honestly don't see the issue unless it's just another reason to try and hate on MS.

$700 phones every two years is just flatout wasteful. I'm pretty sure the average consumer doesn't spend that much
