Based on your posting history, I know you are the expert here.
I don't wish or hope about console sales. THe PS4 took clear advantage of the fact that the XB1 was poorly debuted and configured and priced wrong for the marketplace. That created a large chunk of the PS3 and 360 userbase to jump on board sooner rather than later. IF you are going to say that "we have never seen a console not increase in year 2", then you are saying that the PS4 will be dead in 2 years. The only real comparison for first year sales like the PS4 is the Wii. It went 3 and a half years and fell off a cliff. THe PS4 won't do that. It will be a great seller and will do so on a consistant basis.
Sony is in no position to do big price cuts or releaase a slim model when the system is selling great as is. Sony is in significant financial hardship after the cyber attacks. They will try to drain what they can from the Playstation division for as long as possible. If the sales of the PS4 went down, they might do a price drop, but that is not likely to happen.
But, I defer to your well experienced knowledge base if I am wrong.
It is near the end of the end....
