It's unprecedented to discontinue current gen consoles before the next gen starts. But I guess the X sales were so low, might as well stop production now and sell what's left. It was a well made machine, but if Lockhart is truly full BC and runs all XBox One games better or equal than they did on the X for equal or better price, then it makes sense. Perhaps the XBox One X is still pretty expensive to make, it never came down in price here. Heck already removed from best buy, only available from online marketplace for CAD 590. CAD 650 on Amazon, 4 left!

I’m from Ontario myself, ya I haven’t seen massive sales since Boxing Day. Otherwise now this is just rumor, but I read somewhere MS planned to launch Series X as early as September. I dunno, covid probably changed their plans but I suspect they need to clear out stock to minimize SKU confusion regardless. 

This gen I was at the midnight launch, long line up at Microplay. I guess it will all be different this year, curb-side pick up? I haven't been to a game store since the start of March.
