I'm going to assume that PS4K will be ready for this year's holiday. Can't believe I haven't seen this thread before.

PS4K

pro: Launches holiday, lots of PS4 owners potentially double dipping, general momentum of PS4

con: its existence is the bastard child of Satan and Don Mattrick

NX

pro: "proper" new generation, probably going to be awesome, probably going to have some killer feature, lots of Nintendo fans interested, Zelda!

con: releases March, yet to be known possible internet rage against a specific functionality/design decision

FIGHT!

I don't see how anyone can make any sensible predictions when neither of these systems has had an official information blowout.

I will go with nx because of it being a new system and nintendo loyalists. Ps4 neo is an upgrade and will sell but i dont think it will first week like neo.

I think the OP is maybe a little biased.Just maybe.

As Ljink96 said, should i buy an upgraded console of one that I already have, or a completely new one.... Hmmmmm.....

My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I'm not even sure NX will beat PS4Neo on its own launch week, the way Ninetndo are handling the whole affair, let alone alligned launch weeks.

I think, imo, that its à stupid comparaison to do.

Of course an upgrade wont sell as much as à new console, did the new 3DS sell as much as 3DS/Vita at launch ? No, not even close.

do you really need à thread about the obvious ?
