Is the Xbox Series S already a failure?

Clearly next gen, just not as powerful
Type up paragraphs and be wrong as fukk brehsI'm glad you responded you must be one of the stupid ones
this will be the 4th time I write the shyt
they cant keep XB1X as an option with Series X
they would be in eachothers way
you are agreeing with me by saying the majority of houses dont have 4k display
if thats the case (which it is) then why would they put out the old 2017 XB1X console with 4k, and just a series X with 4k
for the 4th time that's the entire point of giving different options... you take the XB1X and restructure it and offer an alternative
when I say its in the same fukking box people start moving goalposts on reality and price point
all it is, is a restructured XB1X ... instead of higher GPU, they saved that for Series X and added the processor and higher speed drive to keep the price down (as an option)
people arguing why do a series S ... but then bringing up XB1X is retarded... its the same shyt but restructured. Its in the same framework, just worked to not clash with the Series X like the XB1X would
nobody in 2021 is trying to buy a 4 year old processor and drive for 4k as a second option. You would just get the series X ... financially speaking nothing else you or anyone else bringing up in here would work at a lower price point as a second option.
If microsoft just wanted to keep XB1X and upgrade it for your second option ... then what do you know!!!!! it becomes a series X dogyou have to offer a different option, and whats cheaper than just restructuring what you already sell?
The point of the thread is why series S exists and why have it? I'm saying its what they already offered since 2017 its just restructured into the series S. The lifecycle of the XB1X cant exist when Series X is out. All 3 units are basically 1.5 - 1.75 - 2.0.... Series S is just a hybrid of XB1X, yall are just falling for the losing 4k step back and not seeing how that would completely fukk up resources into Series X. You would split your sales and availability, then everyone would just buy the other version. The black friday sales never happen if you dont restructure it because you wouldnt even have the resources to put them on the shelf, you wouldnt even be able to enter the market at a second option price point. Its the same as if they put out Switch Lite and Switch OLED and then discontinued the base switch. The other two are born out of the original but in different directions to market. With Xbox and Sony you cant just keep old shyt sitting on the shelf because they are already struggling to get those chips period. They need to go towards the marquee system at that company... not to the second option
Its the same concept of why they sell Nissan-Infiniti-Lexus. You cant just make a Nissan a Lexus and charge people Nissan prices. You give the consumer options from the same build with what features they need. But you cant give them the same features at every level. Everyone would just buy a Nissan at that point. This is a very basic concept I have no clue how people are struggling with it.
Just me bringing up Xbox Scarlett proves you wrong. This shyt been planned and waiting ... they use it to undercut competition. The Scarlett build up was a pump fake ... then they dumped the real resources into Series X ... and made sure the 2nd option would undercut everyone else. Why step on your own toes when its a simple game? Sony did it simple by just not adding a drive and deducting cost from that. But its still the same exact system. You cant make a second option for microsoft unless you do it the way they did
You're claiming the Series S is just a repurposed One X and that is factually incorrect. The specs for both have been posted several times so I don't know why you're holding on to that talking point. Everyone in here can read. As for Microsoft's motives? They can now boast about having the cheapest entry point to "next-gen". It wasn't to trick consumers into buying underpowered, recycled hardware as you're insinuating. The general public is price sensitive - stop gauging interest from nikkas you interact with on a gaming forum
. And even with all the concessions it wouldn't shock me if they're losing more money on the S than X.
shyt been trending all day on twitter. I don't know Microsoft got a hit on their hands. Japan already loves it with the compact size.
They are. It’s already been confirmed.
It’s worth it for them to get people in the ecosystem early. “Casuals”normally would have to wait a couple years before getting a system due to price and availability. Now they get in on “next gen” early and are locked into Microsoft ecosystem with an all digital console

Microsoft is playing the long game. It's all about gamepass. Microsoft is just Sega Jr. They are doing what sega wanted to doYou're claiming the Series S is just a repurposed One X and that is factually incorrect.

The first few post consist of...
This thread like most of the Sony Stan Xbox threads never age well
So before this gen begun, the consensus amongst lots of people was that the cheaper Xbox would be a smash hit due to people not caring about graphics and wanting to play Madden, FIFA etc as well as the cheap price. But the console is now readily available in a lot of stores. I’ve just checked Walmart and you can buy it right now.
If people desperate to buy an Xbox don’t want the cheaper version and are waiting for the more expensive version, can we start calling it a failure?
Still remember people saying it would outsell the PS5 and the Series X due to the price
You'd think bullshyt threads like these would get bushed but I guess there wasn't enough TRUTH to bush it. They bush factual threads, most of my bushed threads ended up being true

The storage issue is what you tell yourself is the issue. No single game uses all that space. You can have the 5 biggest games in it at once and be good so reality is do you need 6+ games installed at once? I'm talking AAA must haves?
So with these new gen consoles you likely have fast internet. I can download a 100gb game in about 10 min or so. Ohh yeah, not everyone has fast internet
What about the cloud, no storage needed for that!!! Oh wait, you need fast internet again
I guess if you have a 4k OLED (LG not the broke nikka Vizio
) so if you have that, but very slow internet because you know not everybody can have fast enough internet to download games over and over. Slow internet, 4k OLED. I guess that's why you get a PS5 because it has more storage than a series s (not x) and it'll look great on your LG as long as you don't try VRR or 1440p (series s does both)On PC it's ok but on consoles it's in each other's way?
So what if they went the PC route and had access to it's ecosystem on every device that will allow it? That's what is happening, they don't care what system you use.
The thing about the one x is that it's a very capable system but it's not a current gen system so as games are being created for new architecture that will limit what is possible on older hardware aka the one x. It has a more than capable GPU but a very underpowered CPU. The series S on the other hand has the same CPU as the series X and just a weaker graphics card (GPU) meaning it can run everything new just at a lower resolution. How low? Up to 4k, they targeting 1440p generally and sometimes it reaches, sometimes it exceeds, sometimes it falls short.
Now name the console that doesn't operate the same way
