| binary solo said: Is the PS4 Slim proving to be a bit of a market failure, relatively speaking? It's almost like PS4og is already slim that there's really no incentive for people to slim down, and for basically no performance improvement (though quieter and lower power consumption, I assume) there seems to be not much reason to choose slim for a first time, or do a sideways "upgrade" to Slim. And with PS4P around the corner at a really decent price a decent number of people are holding off to get that, hence being #3 in the Sept monthly chart 2 months before PS4P's launch. And so it also surprises me that Xb one is not the leading on-market sku. I would have thought the delaying effect of PS4P pre-orders would at least put Xb one marginally ahead. |
Wait for black friday and the temp price cut down to 249$.
I believe the PS4 pro will keep its 399$ for quite sometime, but the slim will see cuts in price for the holidays.
Most of us where expecting it at 249$, and I dont think its unreasonable to assume it could be priced that way.
They are outselling Xbox, even with the slim priced at 299$, as you pointed out.
Still.... 249$ come black friday, and these things should be flying off shelves.
