So I've decided I want a PS4 Pro instead of getting the Nintendo Switch. In my mind the Pro is the way to go at the moment. But I want YOUR opinion on what I should get and whats the better option. I DO own a PS4 and a Wii U btw.

PS4 Pro Pros:  I have a 4K gaming monitor, I have games that are supported by the Pro, the rest of my games has the boost mode. Extra 1TB, 1080p captured gameplay and livestreams. I'm selling my PS4 for the Pro so PS4 Pro option is cheaper and Rocket League 4K update is coming!

PS4 Pro Cons: Still the same console.... I think that's all.

Nintendo Switch Pros: New console, Breath of the Wild, Splatoon global testfire in March...............................................................................

Nintendo Switch Cons: More expensive. Only 1 game I'm interested in at launch. SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE and not getting stocked up until April. Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (I own on Wii U), Super Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade and all other games I'm interested in is NOT releasing anytime soon. 

Come to think of it. I think the Pro is the better option. But what do you guys think? If you were me, what would you get?

Edit: sorry accidental post.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

You should get the Switch no matter what

Um... you already have a PS4, why waste another 400 on a paltry upgrade when you can get a whole new console for 300? Easy decision in my book, Switch.



Sell your old PS4 get a pro and also get a s/hand Vita for remote play. Then you can play all your ps4 games around the home and garden with Switch beating graphics using the Vita for free and no need to pay out for expensive Switch cartridge games, effectively a 4 terraflop portable. Also get yourself some igrado's or other Grado headphones for when playing on the Vita for incredible sound quality. The Vita also doubles as an extra ps4 controller for additional players.

Keep your wii u for Zelda of course.

Do you want your games to be "better" or do you want more games? Really a simple question.

well the thing is... Switch games I'm interested in are not being released anytime soon tho. 



I'm a bit torn. Pro now, Switch later. That dog will hunt.

If you already have a PS4 i would go with the Switch.

Unless you already don't have enough time to play everything you want on the PS4, then the PRO would make your experience better.



You still haven't made up your mind? XD. It's easy. If you have PS4 right now, I don't see the appeal on buying a Pro before Switch. You'll get the same games than PS4 but vitaminated. Not sure if that's worth it. Now, if you don't have a PS4 is tricky. Do you value portability and Ninty exclusives? Do you prefer getting more third party games and more power? It's your call. It depends on your priorities.
