Don’t need it at all. The SSD they are using is already fast enough and DirectStorage is coming to PC too so it will be very easy for devs to optimize for Xbox and PC.
The sound engine on Xox Series is also very good just look at Project Acoustics:
We know a lot more about the Xbox Series X.

It’s a gaming console. Why would you need the latest Wifi or USB-C? It doesn’t provide a meaningful advantage.
MS has a huge ecosystem, they don’t care if you play their games only on XSX or only on PC. All games will be on XSX and PC. Consoles are now like PCs more than ever, it’s very easy for Devs to create games for PC and XSX.
I like the Xbox Controller more due to ultra low latency and better analogue stick positions.
And all those features the DS has, what if devs forget about those features in a year or two, like they did with the Switch HD Rumble or the DS4 Touchpad? Not many devs use those features, except at launch.
Also, due to corona not many people have that much money to pay $70 for another controller to play with their friends together.
XSX is already more powerful. Not needed.
