Yeah but if you consider price cut, you should also consider the way cheaper model launched with the Series X, which can act as a price cut as well. And today's 500$ has nothing to do with 2014's 500$, so it is pretty expected to sell more.

It doesn't act like a price cut. What a price cut means is that the customer can get the product they wanted for a cheaper price than before.

Or put another way, both the Series X and Series S can receive their own price cuts. If Xbox Series is already outpacing Xbox One without a price cut, then its lead is only going to grow more when the Series SKUs are made available at cheaper prices.

Yeah, but if the customer wants a next-generation Xbox to a cheaper price, the Series S is the way to go without which they wouldn't have considered the purchase.

Thus, the "act as a price cut" thing I said. I don't believe the Series S aims for a new demographic target, it just aims the regular Xbox fan which is keen to have a cheaper solution.
