Another long winded reply with the same answer: they had nothing. Horizon came months after the Pro. When Pro launched Sony relied entirely on superior multiplats over PS4/Xbone to sell the Pro. MS will do the same for the Scorpio. Hell, at least it will have Forza 7 at launch, a AAA exclusive built to shine on the Scorpio. Pro didn't have anything like that at launch.

The only post that makes more logical sense.

The thing is Sony deliberately didn't market the Pro strongly because they knew the base PS4 would be the breadwinner. 

A reminder: Sony sold all the Pros they manifactured.

 

Microsoft on the other hand need the X to sell after their marketing push tanked the sales of the S.

Them launching with nothing leaves them with no momentum, while Sony only needed "PS4, but better".

 

As much as these two launches aren't dissimilarin terms of content, they are in terms of their company's status in the industry.
