If it's just going to do 4K, i'm not even going to bother with it. 4K seems to still be pretty far away from being standard resolution. I'll just keep my launch PS4.

Well most people don't even buy 1080P TV's these days, there is no point in it when they are the same price as 4K.

Well, you're wrong. Most 1080p TVs today cost between $250 and $750.  Meanwhile most 4K Tvs are between $750 and $2000. For example, Best buy has a Sharp 43" 1080p TV for $299. The near identical Sharp 4K model is $599. So they really aren't the same price.

But ignoring that there was only 28 million 4K TVs sold in the entire world last year! Only 5-10% of North American Households have a 4K TVs (it's supposed to be 10% by the end of this year). The ownership is almost half that in the rest of the world. So you're making a console for less than 90% of TV owners, a large percentage of which have zero interest in a PS4, another percentage of which already have a PS4 and has no interest in "upgrading". 
Seems like an awfully small audience to be making a console for does it not?

This whole concept is complete nonsense for every single rational way you look at it.
