Is the ps4 the white knight of the next gen consoles? What about the other consoles?

Nobody said anything about 'the most powerful', but the Xbox One and PS4 are on similar footing. Given what Microsoft proposed earlier, much to the distaste of a large group of gamers, the PS4 was/is the White Knight because of its similarity minus the restrictions. They would get a similar experience, minus Xbox exclusives of course, for less (and fewer restrictions). The same third party games, an online system that's catching up to XBL, etc. I am sure the reception would have been similar if the PS4 was exctly the same in power or slightly lower. I see no reason why the Wii U would ever be considered a White Knight, though. It would have if Microsoft and Sony both left gamers with a lot to be desired. The fact that most gamers see the Wii U as a side system and not the main course is very telling. I'm inclined to think they see it that way too

And yes, I will argue that and not bother with the bold since 'the most powerful' argument is not one I intend to carry.

Normal people never aligned themselves with the White Knight. It's only after heroic deeds that people take him in mind. So far no one's giving him a chance, but who knows what will happen next!
