Rumors are swirling about an upcoming fresh Xbox 360 redesign — a slimmer, perhaps more portable iteration — but don’t bother asking GameStop brass Dan DeMatteo about it. He knows as much as we do — which is to say, nothing but rumors from suspect sources.
“And we have nothing in our financial plans for anything different — either price change or new upgrade — of either the PS3 or 360,” DeMatteo-san told listeners of GameStop’s Q4 earnings call, after shutting the door in the same manner on the Wii HD. “I wouldn’t be surprised if their total focus was on the new motion-detection devices, etcetera.”
From the Wii HD to a new Xbox 360, we’re in “[We] don’t comment on rumors and speculation” territory. We’ll just have move along for now (and hope our HDDs can make the transitionifMicrosoft does indeed have new hardware up their sleeves).
