Have they said anything about games? A shiny new machine is cool and all but what's the point without something to play on it?

Kinda sucks it's $499 AUD ($362 USD) for series s and $749 AUD ($544 USD) for it here in Australia, but that's still probably better pricing than other countries.

I don't like how series s is digital only though, so I might wait for the series x to drop in price, since it has a disc drive. But I think microsoft has a chance this gen

We all know that Sony is going to release theirs at $50-$100 more for the "PS Exclusivity Tax."

They're riding a high on top of the market and probably believe their fans will continue to support them without having to cater to them.

Really hope Microsoft can step it up like what they did during the 360 / PS3 era and humble their ass again because they need one.

Sony has always underpriced their consoles.
PS1 at $399 vs Saturn at $499.
PS2 at $299 vs Xbox at $349.
PS4 at $399 vs Xbone at $499.
Only once have they priced their consoles higher than competition, but whatever suits your bias better I guess.

That is $650 and $394 respectivelly. Fuck them with their overpricing policies, I will buy it after a year or in the second hand market.

Why is it that in South America consoles have this stupid import taxes? It only makes it sell much less, and most of those sales will be illegal imports from the US so they end up getting much less taxes than if they just priced them accordingly.
