The NeXTBoX is here: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-series-x-exclusive-details-say-hello-to-micro/1100-6472190/ Its minitower design is sexy as hell (yet nerds are already complaining about possible Wife Acceptation Factor concerns, AKA "it won't fit under my TV!"). It already packs the goodies you would expect from a next-gen console (AMD Zen CPU/Navi GPU, 8K/120Hz gaming, SSD). The disc drive is still there, not that most people give a damn anymore. And... the name. Xbox Series X, AKA Xbox SX, AKA Xbox Sex, AKA Sexbox. MS really should fire their entire marketing department, seriously.

Yeah, i've seen some complaining about the look online. I think it looks fine. It's basically like 2 slim 360s on edge. |

The minitower is ugly, andeI'm convinced they mistook a box on the designer's desk for the actual mockup. --- In UTF-16, where available. --- |

So you guys never saw an actual NeXT box, I guess. I'm the enemy of minimalism, but even I have to admit that it actually looks impressive. Like an IBM Thinkcentre/Thinkpad (note I say "IBM", not "Lenovo"). Licensed Pirate® since 2006, 100% Buttcoin™-free, enemy of All Things JavaScript™ |

The tower is smaller than I thought at least; the folks over at Windows Central were able to get an estimated size by using the USB Type-A port, and it isn't a terrible size. https://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-series-x-almost-double-size-xbox-one-x |
