| Manlytears said: For NEO and Scorpio... Both will have mediocre sales... you know why? 4 reasons... 1. Both consoles have no exclusives. They are just a resolution/FPS boost. 2. Both are going to be more expensive than PS4/X1. 3. Devs are not going to focus on these new consoles and forget about +70M users on PS4/x1. they will just work on better resolution/frame rate, that's it. 4. They will have short life, 3 years maximum. Consoles need Generation leaps and the old consoles must die so that the new consoles can succeed. In the end, the battle remains between ps4 and x1, until the real "new generation" appears. |
I think it's the reverse. In 2 years I wouldn't be surprised if you can't even buy the OG PS4/XB1, they will be phased out in favor of these new models.
People are not going to buy the inferior consoles, once they have crossed the threshold of wanting one of the systems and being willing to pay money for it, then you may as well not skimp out.
What's a $100 savings on something you will probably use for 3-4 years? That comes out to what? $3/month? You can't even get lunch at McDonalds with that.
Generations are done too. From now on you will be able to "change" your generation when you want because there will be new models every 3 years.
