Buy PS4/X1 now, or wait for NX?

People here just love to jump the gun and parrot "PS4" without reading the OP, don't they?

So, is it for FFXV and FFVII or you like the genre? Since your friends are there, if you are only on it for those two, I'd say a XONE, since we are also playing FFXV, but if you're interested on JRPGs other than those two, then I'd recommend a PS4 since it seems to be the PlayStation 4's staple...

FF specifically. Not the biggest JRPG nut, but FF is a series I've always loved.

It just bothers me that X1 is coming up short lately in multiplat performance and I fear that's a gap that's only going to widen. FF15 demo for X1 did NOT technically look anywhere near as good as PS4. Not sure how games will run on X1 2017 and beyond... Not harping on X1, but it's not positioned as well as 360 was in it's time.

If FF does indeed makes a grand a return to the Nintendo platform and runs best on NX, that's where I want to be...

It seems like it will not last as long as the PS4 will, but the performance gap has been closing down save for a few studios actually. It deals a lot with optimization, since Avalanche proved the XONE can run a game and might actually be able to run it better on the XONE (Mad Max did it). No worries though, it's just that I also thought that you might enjoy gaming with your friends. I do...

Should you plan on waiting, upgrading the RAM of your PC alone might provide you with a brief respite for most games. That said, I'd be wary of the NX since odds are that it will be outperformed by the next gen PS and Xbox...
