In the end, Pachter predicted success for PS4 and Nintendo Switch, but was left wondering about the Xbox One X’s possible mass market appeal.
Speaking during the YouTube Live coverage, Pachter gave his thoughts on the Xbox One X’s price.
The big problem, according to Pachter, is that the One X costs as much as a PS4 plus Xbox One S combined- so there is the larger question of whether or not the casual customer will even consider purchasing it when they can always purchase a cheaper Xbox One or PS4.
The Xbox One X’s price was announced earlier today, and at a whopping $499, it was deemed to be way too expensive by most people.
