The key here is:

The most powerful console
The cheaper of the two consoles
The best 1st party studios
Easier to program by far than the Ps3
More indie devs than XboxOne
Bigger launch window line up
Cheaper online
Less items behind a paywall

Isn't that a potential good combination? It's not like the Ps4 has only one or two little things going for it right now, it seems to have a lot.


Add to that the following:

 

Better design, smaller, cooler, fancier, more efficient with no gigantic power brick

Better brand recognition

Better aging process, it will have more games down the line and will live longer

Most probably better hardware durability record

Better peripherals support (like an upgradable hard drive, and controllers that don't need batteries!)

Handheld integration with Vita...

etc...

 

As a note on the last item, I wasn't thinking of buying a Vita as I was using my ipad as my main mobile device recently (after PSP), but coupled with PS4, Vita might be a good option. On the other hand, I have NO interest in any Microsoft made mobile system whatsoever.
