I was actually surprised to see how much smaller the Xbox One S got while moving the power supply to the inside.  It's usually the opposite of that when consoles slim down.

With that said, it's still not enough to me me lean towards the Xbox.  I'm still ready to buy a PS4 as my next console.  I'm just trying to figure out if I will wait for the PS4.5 or buy the inevitably cheaper base PS4.  Target actually has a sale on PS4 models, but it's only applies to the $400 model making it $350.  I want the $350 model to come down to at least $300 before I pull the trigger.  I'm looking forward to the VR set, but I can assure you that I will be a late adopter to actually buying it.
Megatron:
The Slim isn't the power beast.  The Xbox Scorpio is.  It was briefly announced at the end of the conference.  The slim is just a little more powerful.  The Scorpio will have more details soon and will likely be released at the end of 2017.  But basically it's more akin to a decent gaming PC with its specs.

I realize that. I only even brought up the slim because they made it smaller while putting the power supply on the inside which almost never happens.  Most manufacturers move the power supply to the outside (brick) when they slim their consoles down.

However, the specs of the Scorpio still won't switch me over from Sony to Microsoft.  I could see getting an XBox One long, long down the road, but if I ever do, it will be long after I've purchased my PS4 and Wii U (neither of which I own at the moment).

Horizon Zero Dawn looks cool, though I have to say I'm more interested by the environment. The 'Why are there robot dinosaurs and what are you killing them for and doesn't electricity and rain/water not mix?' question kinda takes me out a bit. Gameplay looks cool, but I like exploitation over combat. I love abandoned places, and I want to search all though that city.

I like what I've seen of Zelda, kinda looks more akin to the NES open world, like SM3DL was closer to the 2D games.

Yay, more amiibo. I guess.

Still looking over the other stuff.
