Could they do that without Sony's permission? It'd certainly be a funny sight.
299 is still pretty crazy for a new xbox console launch.
Yea I would take a series x without controllerThis could actually be a pretty brilliant strategy. I would buy a Series X without a controller as I plan on using my Elite and I have plenty of One controllers for when I need more than one.
I mean before any speculation, do we have any BOM estimates for the controller?
This would probably be the right time for badges and shit, lolI like this idea, only problem average consumer buying it and then wondering why there's no controller after they open the box
This doesn't make any sense. What target audience are they aiming for with Lockhart? Is it the new/casual audience? Or the existing audience?
The specs and price suggests the former but I don't know how they'll spin it in the marketing? Next-gen Xbox starting at $199-$249*
*without a controller?
$15-20.
Would most likely just be online only and you'll have the option to customize your order. Just Like you would when buying a PC.I like this idea, only problem average consumer buying it and then wondering why there's no controller after they open the box
yes but I thought this was as the only option. As a separate sku, I think it's a great idea. Just put a label on it making it clear. they also have experience in how to make big labels that take almost all space on the package, so why not use it lolWasn't there a joke about a console (never) being sold without a controller? Is Jeff just joking here?
This is going to cause an avalanche of customer support calls and open box returns.
I mean you could use a dual shock 4 for xcloudCould they do that without Sony's permission? It'd certainly be a funny sight.
DE?The only way I could see $200 happening is if they know/have a good idea Sony are going $349 for the DE.
They already doing it with xcloud :)Could they do that without Sony's permission? It'd certainly be a funny sight.
