I would actually prefer them to release a moderately powerful console instead of a powerful beast. Sony is not in the position to pump out a huge machine - Microsoft can afford to lose money, Sony can't. Then there's the strong Yen...

From my personal perspective I'd want a cheaper PS4 as well. I won't spend more than €300 just on the hardware. I bought my PS3 for €250 and it was totally worth it. But this time I already own a Blu-Ray player and it never feels good to spend huge money on gaming hardware. Make it less expensive and less powerful and it will sell better and get more games.

They will both lose money on the consoles. They will make that money back on subscription services like Playstation Plus and Xbox Live, plus accessories and games.
