Pretty sure its either 499$ or 449$.
Leaning more towards 499$.

$499 seems most likely, we'll just have to see how much MS cares about it's profit margin.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Pole should only have the 3 realistic options: 449$ , 499$, 549$.

All the others are troll votes imo.



I'm thinking $499, as it seems kinda weird to launch a console that doesn't end in $x99, which also means it's dead in the water. However, if they can get it out at $399, they'll have a shot at keeping XBO sales at least flat. Of course, it won't help that Sony will most likely drop the Pro to $299 in that scenario. It'll also be interesting to see how MS answers to PS5 rumors we will no doubt be getting next year.



$399, mainly because they have to.

PS4pro is 399$

Scorpio has: bigger apu chip, more ram, UHD blu-ray drive, more expensive cooling solution, more expensive hard disk drive, bigger PSU unit, ect ect.

It cant be 399$ unless MS is willing to lose like 50-100$ on each unit sold.

 

This is comeing from a guy who was pretty sure Nintendo could/would sell the Switch at 249$ (before we knew the price).

Theres just no way MS can do it at 399$, its going to be more than that.



$450, to weak for $499, but too strong for $399.

Not really.... I believe that at the time the scorpio is released the PS4pro would be priced at $350 or even $299 depending on how agressive sony wants to get.

Nothing stops MS from selling a $400-$420 console for $350 if they want to price match sony even if its just a holiday or launch special.

MS can go a totally different route and make the Xbox1 Elite or Surafce Box. Whic lands it firmly in premium pricing territory. Bundle the console with an XB1 elite controller and some sort of premium headset and price the whole thng for $599. With an advertised basic "Surface box priced at $450-$499 to be released later.

They did the same thing with the XB1s with the 2TB model (o was it 1TB model) being a limited run type thing. 



I'm hoping $399 but I agree with others that have said $499.
I hope Microsoft anticipates a ps4Pro price drop to $350 and prices it at $399. $150 price gap is going to hurt it at retail stores.



$450 and if sales aren't impressive a switch price cut to $399.

I imagine Microsoft would like to sell a piece of hardware like this for $499 but that just won't be competitive in today's market.
