The thing is.... I could see the Switch 2, launching at $449 or even $499 as well.  So you don't even have many options, Xbox might not make a cheaper and normal version of their next console either.  So it'll be get one at 500, or don't own a console.

Tech isn't saving much from node shrinkage anymore.
And inflation is a real thing.... $500 today vs $500 from 12 years ago, are not the same.

The XSS procedure that budgets consoles are a bad idea, the headache it has cause MS is not worth. It's basically them writing a check to buy timed exclusives for Sony.

I wonder if one of the two (sony or xbox) is willing to be much much weaker, in terms of hardware (for their console line).
If it means they can then sell it at like half what the other is doing.

Honestly if enough of the market is lowballing (because Switch 2 will be around for awhile).
What big benefit would it even bring if just 1 of the 3 is focusing on power / expensive machine?

Might be a power play.
I think sony could pull it off without it damaging them too much.
But thats a thing for next gen consoles.
