Everything is possible, just $150 price cut  isn't realistic at all. Also PS4 Neo will most likely have $100 higher price than regular PS4, $150 at most. I personally expecting $400 for PS4 Neo, and $250-300 for regular PS4.

Final prediction:

PS4 drops to $300 (still going to sell because some people will prefer the aesthetics)
PS4s $250
PS4 Neo $350 - $400. If it's $400 it will come with a game. Likely UC4 enhanced.

Sure everything is possible, I just don't see how so many think Neo will only be $100 more than the base model. We are talking about an industry that charges $50 more for a 500GB vs 1TB system. That is on a drive that is maybe a few bucks more, ecspecialy in bulk.

Now, we have a system that at the least has twice the GPU, an enhanced Audio/Video decoder, and most likely a 1TB. I just dont see this being anything but double the price of the base unit. 

At $200/$400 or $250/$500 there is a clear distinction between the base unit and the premium model. It leaves no confusion with those prices. If you want a PS4 on the whim the base is a no brainer with a 2X price difference.

With a mere $100 difference, there is almost no point in the PS4 2000, as people will just pay the $100 extra. Unless the idea is just to make the Neo such a good deal people can't pass it up, and then when the data shows Neo is %85 of the sales they will pull the 2000 off the shelves.

Whatever the out come, this is extreamly exciting times in the console buisness. September 7th is going to be a great day, and whatever the outcome, I will be getting a Neo and PSVR day one.

For $100 you can easily make twice stronger PS4 gpu and strength overall system. There is no confusion if you have system with price point of $250 and system with price point of $350, $100 is pretty huge difference for console. You realise that PS4 curently have higher price than PS3 only for aroung $150.

I am standing that PS4 Neo will have around $100-150 higher price than PS4, no way that will have $200 difference in price or twice difference. Remember this is just upgrade not completely new console even PS4 had higher price than PS3 only for $150-200 when was launched, even now PS4 has higher price than PS3 for only $150 and you expecting that PS4 upgrade have double price than PS4!? Sry but that doesnt make any sense.
