I can buy anything I want for whatever reason. It's called "personal preference." And after reading Zoombael response to your comment, I see what you're trying to do now. You're just trying to belittle the potential market for the PS4 Pro. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but obviously I was wrong about you. And in 1st world countries, people always buy more than they need whether it's food, clothes, cells phone functions, kitchen appliances, video games, cars, square footage of a home, etc. According to your false logic, I'm in a niche market with my Mazda 6. Maybe I should have picked out the Sport model since I don't need the bells and whistles of the Touring model I currently own. Better yet besides getting a 6, maybe I should have settled with a 3 since it's cheaper and "does the job." Then again, the Toyota Camry cost less that a Mazda 3. For shame I'm in such a niche market. FOR SHAME! Yes, that was sarcasm about the Mazda. Nothing niche about that and the PS4 Pro, nothing new.

The PS4pro is a premium version of the PS4. It will sell less than the PS4(/PS4s) SKU and be a subset of the PS4 family. By virtue it will serve a niche market.

My point was that as a premium console, differing from a new-gen console, pricing isn't as important as new features given that a standard SKU exists to serve the rest. It related to your situation in that had it cost more than you were willing to pay with your current setup, you'd still buy a regular PS4.

Of course I still wanted to buy PS4 because I'm a gamer. But that was before the PS4 Pro announcement. The PS4 Pro serves my gaming preferences more than the PS4. So again it's a non issue and I get when I pay for. And so what if the PS4 outsell the PS4 Pro? That doesn't make the PS4 Pro a niche system and even if it is what's the big deal? It's what I want and that's what really matters. It's not up to you to dictate what's best for me and what's a niche product.
