Yeah no, I'm not doing the "weaker takes it all" debate.

And yeah, MS clearly overestimate the appeal of the S

I would wait till later to see if they overestimated the Series S. It's the hardcore gamers that jump on next gen fast and want the best option possible. There is way more interest in the Series X than S right now. That could change this year or next when the casuals jump on.

There is almost no appeal to the casuals regarding the Series S:

- can't read old disc-based games

- you can't buy used games

- you can't sell your games once you're done with them

- you'll have to pay full price of any new game which won't be in the gamepass

- you'll have to pay 12 dollars per month to be able to play games if you don't wanna buy them full price, even if your average play time is very low

A pure casual person buys a cheap console and used games (around 4-5 games) and sells it when he/she is done with it. The Series S is the extreme opposite of what a casual would do. It's a huge cash grab
