Does Microsoft regret the Series S?!? Easy Achievers Ep.165
Channel: Easy Achievers
Date: 2023-08-11

It's been quite a slow news week, but as everyone knows, that doesn't stop me from talking. This week, we have some news: Nintendo will finally be releasing a new console next year. This news has sparked a debate about whether there will be backwards compatibility for the new console and if Nintendo will carry over existing purchases to the new system.

One of my favorite parts of sitting down with you every week is randomly finding a nugget of news to go on, which leads to what I believe is a great tangent that initiates a compelling thought/discussion. This discovery was made this week with the Xbox Series X rumor suggesting that there will be a discless version of the system to potentially reduce both the size and cost of the system. Will this setup allow Microsoft to introduce a mid-gen refresh with a potentially new system? Or will Phil Spencer's words that the Series X is that mid-gen system and there won't be another one come true? I'm curious to hear your thoughts on any of this in the latest episode of the Easy Achievers Gaming Podcast.

As always, I appreciate any feedback, which can be left in the comments below.
