If the games work on my ps4 - I won't have a problem.
I don't understand the mentality of "but I will be mad I don't have the best version" or any version of that.

That would mean constantly having the best TV, phone, car, computer, clothes, shoes, jewelry etc. That would just be a nightmare.

Did you buy your PS4 expecting to be able to play the latest console games until 2019-2020, if not later?
Probably.

Yes and this is still true.


Did you buy your PS4 expecting to never have to worry about how well a new game will run on your PS4? That you would never have to worry whether your version of the PS4 got a "lazy port"?
Probably.

No.  Plenty of games, right now, on consoles have performance issues on the latest consoles, especially some of the games I play.   Not because of PS4 Neo, rather all on their own.  But that is the nature of bleeding edge graphics on consoles that you can't upgrade yourself like you can a PC.  PS4 Neo gives us a tradeup if we want it that can potentially either solve those performance issues or enhance games even further.


My point being, your expectations of what the console will provide for you over the next few years now unexpectedly will no longer meet reality. Base PS4 owners will have legitimate concerns how well games will run on their PS4 and how long their console will be supported from the point the Neo is released onwards. In fact they might have decided to buy a PS4 over a PC to specifically avoid those concerns, and that is frustrating.

It's a bit of a bait and switch.

I just don't see it that way.
