Damn! That's a first for Nintendo!!! Just another evidence that PS4 won't be much stronger than WiiU


I wonder if they're making a loss on the $349 model as well?

As far we know sony's system doesn't come with a 50$ control. Assuming Nintendo are only making a small loss and Sony are aiming for a $399 system and they're willing to make a loss of up to $100 (as opposed to $300 loss from ps3). That gives them an additional $99 to spend on CPU/GPU compared to Nintendo and maybe $30-40 on a large harddrive. Then the question is; what kind of leap would A $100 difference make? But one must remember the ps4 isn't launching for at least another 12months, so GPU/CPU graphical efficiency and prices would presembaly be a fair bit better by late 2013.  

 

i don't think sony can and will take a huge loss on ps4. they cant afford a 100 dollar hit on every system imo. one year and a $399 price tag ain't gonna be enough for the ps4 to be a significantly jump over wiiu...

Sony won't be using alien technology on the PS4. This means that even if they take a big loss at launch, those losses will go down fast over time.(unlike the PS3)

What I've been saying for quite some time is that SONY can't afford to lose money next time around, and PS4 won't be such a leap over WiiU as PS3 was over Wii. It'll definetly be stronger - I don't think anyone doubts that - it just won't be an überconsole.

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
