To me, that's a bigger waste of money than paying a bit extra for a 4K player on the device. But I did mention the hardcore fanbase as part of the niche audience for the PS4pro.

Out of interest, would you still be buying a PS4pro if it cost $100 more?

Would I buy a PS4 Pro if it were $500 with 4K Blu-Ray playback.  Short answer: No.

Long answer: I really cannot justify a current gen concole at the moment beause of my backlog.  Because of your Bob Hoskins Mario avy, let me show you my personal Nintendo DS collection supported by my car manual and a napkin holder:

Including one 3DS game for a handheld that I do NOT own, there are 20 games I have yet to beat.  And that's just for one system.  My backlog will last me for the next two generation at my rate.  My original intent in buying a PS4 this Christmas was to bag an original PS4 because I preferred the look of the original over the Slim, and I didn't want to miss out on getting an original model before they were all sold out.  That was before the PS4 Pro announcement.  A hundred dollars more for a 1 TB HDD and enhanced graphics even on a 1080p tv was worth the difference over a 500 GB HDD wiith no enhanced graphic.  But to pay another $100 for 4K Blu-Ray playback wasn't worth it to me as implied in my original post due to current higher priorities.

I didn't mean if you would pay an extra $100 for 4K bluray playback.

If the PS4pro as it currently stands was priced $100 more, would that be a deal-breaker for you, or would you still get it?
