When consoles getting cheaper initial prices they won't be able to catch up with pc graphics for a long time (i mean less time than a more expensive console). That leads to a shorter lifetime. I want it releasing with a 600€ pricetag. that would be 750US-$, but usually they aren't calculating the prices correctly, i.e. when we have to pay 600€ that would mean in NA about 650$. 400 Dollars is just not realistic. You won't get a machine from the future, just a cheap thing with normal pc components. |
$400 isn't cheap at all, and will provide a big jump over current gen. I don't want a $600 PS4 because I want Sony to stay in business. A $600 console would sell like pork in Baghdad, the competition would be way ahead. The Xbox 360 is on par with PS3 from a hardware perspective and it was $400 instead of $600.
$400 is incredibly realistic, $600 isn't, and anything above $600 would be suicide for any console manufacturer.
