Microsoft shoots down Xbox One Mini rumor

4.7
The Xbox One is a large console, but it seems Microsoft is in no rush to unveil a slimmer model. The company was rumored to be launching an "Xbox One Mini" in October, but Phil Spencer, Microsoft's head of Xbox, has shot down the idea on Twitter. His "not real" statement is pretty definitive, although of course, that doesn't mean Microsoft isn't planning a redesign for a later date. Although the Xbox One's sales are behind the PlayStation 4, it has a slew of exclusives coming out this fall including Halo 5: Guardians, Forza Motorsport 6 and Rise of the Tomb Raider (okay, that last one is actually a timed exclusive). If Microsoft is working on a "Mini" model, it's more likely to appear at somewhere like E3 next year.

They should give it some time for the release due to the Xbox One recently came out a few years ago

What would be the point in creating a new console if it has not been 4 years for the XBOX ONE to come out, This would of been a waste of money in my opinion to come out with something like this.

Guns Its not needed yet anyway. maybe in a year or so.




FutureSight That would be dumb
Why would Microsoft make an miniature version of the Xbox one
That is a waste of money and time


That's true, I'm curious on what one would look like though. :P
