Something tells me we will have a price drop on E3

I can feel that happening, a 50-100 price drop on both models starting straight after Sony’s e3 presentation and I also feel that Sony will ship way more ps4s for this year’s Black Friday as they underestimated last year’s sales. 

Im thinking just a $50 price cut to $249/349 this year with an extra $50 discount during the holidays.

2019 will see PS4 Super Slim & PS4 Pro Slim at $199/299 where it will remain for a couple years.

2020 will see PS5 release at $399.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

When there is a price cut for the PS4s, its going to most likely be a $100 one. Most of last year the PS4 was unofficially selling for $250. Sony has tested the waters with a $199 price point. A $50 drop wouldn't have much of an effect.

Its possible but i just dont see it, at this point in the generation and with how well its selling, i dont think they want to cut into their profit margin too much.

January 20th numbers are in and 2017 adds a little bit to its lead.

Next numbers are going to be very big for 2018 (Monster Hunter: World).
It should get a gargantuan bump in Japan and completely demolish 2017 that week, putting it far up.
The real interesting part will see how long that boost lasts in 2018's favor.

It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Fourth week numbers are in.

Zenkai Boosted by Monster Hunter World and Dragon Ball FighterZ, 2018 obliterates 2017's lead and takes a big one of ~106k.
