Probably the same reason as you, I have a hard time not replying to people when they quote me.

It's simple. Just don't reply to this post. 

I legitimately can't tell if that's a user request or a mod order.

Was any of the technology used still in development? I'm fairly certain I read that SSD they were using was still in late stage development. That would make any model they're using still technically prototype. It wasn't the announcement of a PS5, it was just a showcase for some of the tech they intended on using. Yes, confirmation that a new console is coming. No, I don't find it to be a proper announcement.

Eeeeerrrrr until like 3-6 months before the console actually release it is still in development.

You can bet devs already have the intended specs (which can change just like PS4 had a double RAM that only first party knew because it was very near the launch of the console) and it isn't unusual that they would already have intended dev kits, but also not unusual that the final dev kit is delivered very near the launch as well. I remember case of it being finished after the HW was already out.

So even PS4 that was revealed in Feb and launched in Nov wasn't totally finished, from what I remember there wasn't even any game show in the event.

All together we can safely say that PS5 and nextbox were formally announced.

They're mostly set in stone in aesthetic design and/or have an official name when they're announced. That's where I draw the line. Devs have had devkits long before Sony confirmed next-gen hardware is far enough to showcase. That's a pretty far back line to draw.

I got called out for my prediction, then called out for "doubling down," and now I predict I'm going to get called out again. I stand by my prediction. Wii will outsell PS4 lifetime. And you want to know how that's going to happen? Here's how:

1) PS4 will be confirmed, in 2030, to have been massively over tracked. 20 million sales adjustment down. Boom.

2) Mini Wii, launching in 2028, will sell 10-30 million copies by 2035.

3) PS5 will secret launch November 2019, cannibalizing PS4 sales.

4) European recession will cause the gaming industry there to collapse. Ps4 sales hurt the most by this.

Looking forward to the trolling that is about to come. Bring it On, Bring it On Again, Give me All or Nothing, I'm In It to Win It, I'm going to Fight to the Finish, and I'll take this all the way to the Worldwide Cheersmack.

Dude, just admit you were wrong and move on

I still stand by my prediction. I think ps4 is way overtracked. Nintendo will always be the best

It isn't and PS4's numbers come straight from Sony's financials.

Then again..... "Dude, just admit you were wrong and move on" couldn't be anymore ironic.

I thought he was joking at first.

He is. Hes quite literally trolling. He has left many negative comments about Nintendo and is just playing the other side to make it look bad, lol.

Seriously ? This guy.



PS4 already passed Wii right ? I'm working a lot lately and I'm not following that too much.

It was an announcement of its existence. I'm giving Shadow the credit there. No, not the full announcement that the PS4 saw in Feb. 2013, but an announcement nonetheless (along with a video of a piece of kit from it in action). 

See it came off more to me as an admission that they're working on next-gen equipment. But no name, no pictures, and the video (despite being leaked) was originally shown privately?

I don't consider that an announcement of a platform. That's a hardware showcase for what they intend on using in the next platform. Confirmation of existence, but not a proper announcement.

You're confusing announcement and reveal.

Not quite, PS4 is 98.6m while Wii is 101.63m
