I Need More Than a $50 Discount to Ditch the Xbox One S Optical Drive

I agree with this. The discless Xbox One S should have been $199.00 USD. I don't know what Microsoft's costs are obviously, but hopefully the goal wasn't to simply make a higher margin in profits. This would more valuable as being a loss leader, or even something to break even, just to get people to sign up to Live and GamePass.

Doesnt everyone preach that their money isnt made from consoles and hardware sales, but instead from games and services?!

Was hoping it would be the X and them making it smaller, but just taking the disc player out of the S and charging almost the same, no thanks..

No console could ever be worth completely getting rid of the disc drive. It’ll always be an invaluable component

The fact Microsoft thinks a lot of people would part with it for a mere $50 is insulting, especially since you can find disc based Xbox One consoles for the same price
