no fu. and after you pay, you still have to look at those ads.

Because a 400 dollar console isn't enough to make a profit.

IIRC console manufacturers actually sell the consoles at a loss, then make profit by charging game developers licensing fees and royalties

Charging for multiplayer access is a combination of paying for server upkeep, and because they can and you'll pay for it

I personally don't believe that consoles are sold at a loss, seems fishy to me that an underpowered system would cost around $700-900.
