What kind of logic is that? Sony don't need what, more sales? R&D costs are still there even if Sony was to postpone PS4-slim, wtf...Companies want to sell more and so does Sony, PS4-slim will allow lower retail price to fight the competition and that will generate more sales and more profit...very simple |
^ this.
People that look at it as some kinda trumph card you play when your in trouble.... thats just not how the real world works.
If Sony plan on makeing another 80m consoles, any and all costs, they can lower from the production of said units, is money earned for them.
The sooner the better.
This is just a question of when does 14-16nm proccess node technology become cheaper to use than whats already in use
(accounting for allowed smaller PSU, heat sink, cabinet ect factored in as well).
Once its viable, it ll be sold to consumers.
Consumers will be happy to have a new PS4 thats smaller, and uses half the power of the older models, and maybe even more quiet as well (puting out less heat too (if you live somewhere you use a AC)).
