Can you imagine the blowback from PS4 owners who have had their consoles for any number of years and have bought the bulk of the software, finding out that if they wanted new games they would have to upgrade, and with the PS5 around the corner Pro only development wouldn't excite anyone, anyway what you wrote at the beginning leads me to believe you assumed it to be rather wishful anyway.

quite wishful, yeah. It literally doesn't make any sense.

I don't think this is what melbye was trying to say. Creating Slim versions of both consoles while also planning a PS5 release in the near future seems like a tall order, and if the difference in manufacturing cost of the Pro vs Original is small enough, it wouldn't be that far-fetched to imagine a world where Sony phases out the regular PS4 and sells a single SKU, the New Super Slim PS4 Pro Deluxe.

And it's really not that bad for OG PS4 owners. All you'd need to do is flip the secret hatch on the back of your unit to reveal a map which will lead you to a minecart. Hop into the minecart, descend into the crust of the Earth, and eventually you will find the secret headquarters where the Pro units are dispensed.
