Yeah they are between a rock and a hard place. They probably are desperate for next gen to start already but if they jump the gun too soon they could flop out the gate. But if they wait until 2020 when people will be thirsty for a new console then they will have to really suffer on for another 12 to 18 months. That's a hell of a long time to be sold 5:1 by your 2 competitors. 

I think from a hardware-perspective that PS4 is bound to start slowing down, software will still sell great as Resident Evil and KIngdom Hearts have done

Heh, Japan and Europe view the Switch so differently. Japan is currently selling more Switches than all of Europe.

Absolutely they are bound to slow down, it's in its 6th year, that doesn't mean the time of PS4 is over and people are ready to move on though.

Well based on their no more gens plan, they could try and pull a Sega, but with FC and BC. Make XB1X the base model at 6TF, drop a 10TF-12TF console late 2019 and then a beefier model (16TF-20TF) late 2021. Have a $299, $399, and $499 model available. Subsidize them a little if need be. If that doesn't work, your pretty much screwed, so time to go software only like Sega. If it does work, you've got yourself a 'next gen' lead hopefully and your back in the game.

Ya pretty much, big games like KH3 and RE2 didn't really do much at all for it. PS4 needs some last big hurrah games(TLOU2) this year. 

Happy anniversary CGI. We've been though so much together, and you teach me new things every day.

Don't know if serious or sarcastic, but either way, I love this comment.

You best not be talking badly of the latest No More Heroes. I'm enjoying that one.

There is absolutely n reason that the PS4 will obliterate the switch. At this stage in its life no software will make any kinda meaningful impact. Only thing that can do any real damage is a price drop to $199. Not $249...... $199.

As i said last year too..... the fact that the PS4 is still selling this well just dashes any possibility of a price drop.

I dont think anything in particular is pushing it. I think this is just going to be its new baseline. Which i believe is a better indication of just how well a platform is really doing. How well it sells when it has n apparent reason to sell.

First ff they can't even d that... using the XB1X as the base console. It wont be FC more than a year into the new gen. The problem is the CPU..... next gen CPUs will be like 5x more powerful than the ones in the current gen consoles now. The kinda games that will be made for them will be pretty much impossible to port over to the XB1X.

And that whole have 3 sku on the market thing is just a bad idea.
