wait the PS4 pro can't play 4k movies? only games?

It can stream 4K movies, but it can't run them off Blurays.  Naturally though, streaming means a downgrade in quality, which may be a problem for early adopters.  It's weird since the Slim plays 4K Blurays.  

The slim plays 4k blurays?

edit: just read article that says it does not.

Yeah...not really. Providing everything said about NX being a portable turns out to be true, NX was NEVER going to be a powerhouse. Nothing about the PS4 is especially relevant to NX: people who want current gen gaming in 4K can get it on the Pro. People who want (potentially) current gen gaming on the go, can get it in NX.

The biggest question in regards to NX is its power in relation to Xbox One and PS4, and whether or not it has enough power/the right hardware under the hood to run the same games at slightly lower resolutions or/and frame rates. If it does, than PS4 Pro doesn't matter because virtually every game made for it will effectively just be regular PS4 games at 4K resolution. If it doesn't, Pro doesn't matter because NX was never getting those games or users anyway.

This is just a mid-generation refresh, guy. Not game changing hardware. And frankly, given that 4K adoption still isn't especially high last I checked, it seems kind of unnecessary.



No. Analysts are once again assuming that Nintendo is using the same formula as Sony or Microsoft. Simply no. There is truth to what Nintendo say that Sony or Microsoft never was a competition.

I don't think this announcement changes anything. Didn't everybody see the PS4Pro coming a mile away? The price is solid, but its not a gamechanger.

Exactly, you can't be a "game changer" and you're just adding more power. A 3 year old could do that. "I want more". Yeah, I love PS as much as the next guy, but this is anything but innovative. You have to be innovative to change anything. There's a Correlation between the two. NX is going to be something different. And I'm just fathoming the idea that something could slay something that doesn't even exist yet. lol!

No even going back to the drawing board Wil save them from their fate. as a matter a fact they should be thankful they survive this long agains a better brand

Perhaps the better question is, will increased funding for first grade spelling classes save us from the fate of reading more posts like this?

O/T: Don't think this particularly affects the NX at all. In fact, I don't think the idea of how this affects the NX was made particularly clear in the OP. Perhaps someone can elaborate?

Damn i can already taste the blood and bans that this thread will bring.


Amazing price for the Pro, was hoping Slim to be 250$ but it's still great.

And with that, I'm out of here!



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Backup plan:

Release Federation Force on iOS.
