Why is the Xbox Series S so expensive?

$300 for a console that barely gives you 900p 60fps checkerboard graphics. You would have to use an ancient monitor to play on this thing lol

Should be $150 to be fair srs

Gaming died in 2007. Why does it matter? I only use my Xbox 360. Nothing worth playing on current gen consoles anyway.

It's not really meant for the US market, it's meant for markets like Brazil. That and they put it on sale a lot, doesn't make sense to buy one at full price.

how is it dumb when it is 200 dollars cheaper? wouldnt you rather have 200 more in your pocket and still be able to play the same games?
