If XBSS is too good of a deal it's going to way outsell XBSX. That won't be good for XBSX non exclusive games in the future.

XBSS and XBSX are being set up like XB1S and XB1X from last gen. If you want the upgraded model, you pay more, but get a lot more.

XBSS isn't supposed to be the end all be all, it's a cheap entry point into next gen and the majority of casuals will be just fine with that.

You do that by adding value not by removing value.

It's a new gen with new consoles. XB1X wasn't upgraded to XBSS. It's a new console, even though it's basically taking the place of the XB1X. Even if you wanted to look at it like it was a more direct upgrade, think of where the XB1X should be priced this holiday based on it's past pricing, and look at it's specs vs XBSS. You're already getting a much more valuable console as it is. How much more does MS have to add in?
