I get the feeling that MS is willing to take a big hit on production to gain back lost market share this gen.

Parents going into GameStop and they see a the Series S and Switch at €300 it's going to be much easier for them to pick up than the €500 PS5/Series X. Especially for younger kids who only seem to play Fortnite these days. The more expensive consoles will sell well to the likes of us who know technology.

Price gougers add nothing whatsoever other than profiting from other people's work, to the expense of everyone by making the product more difficult to acquire for people who actually want it.
