I'm glad it's happening, but I'm honestly baffled as to why.

The software isn't exactly lighting up the charts (fprza and gears) are not system sellers.

4k bluray is not a draw since 4k bluray sales are very small. Even the design itself is a bit naff, but it definitely looks better than the PS4S.

Other little things could be the epic library of XO and 360 games and the fact that differences I'm the ps4 versions of multiplatform games are getting less significant. I don't belive in these 1.5 consoles so I'm hoping it's not just the case of "people waiting for PS4 PRO.

Apparently, they are system sellers. At least GoW4 is. Evidently. Over half of physical purchases were made in the US and system sales spike during week of release.

 

I don't understand all the hubbub. It's not like PS and Xbox were dominating those particular regions. There never was a significant gap between them.

Sorry but no it isnt. most people will go the affordable option. The slim versions of both consoles will sell the most.

You're saying not even PS4 was affordable at release?

its all relative now as we have much cheeper slim variants.  The pro is not that much of a huge leap forward that you would find in a next gen release such as a ps5 or xbox next.  Sorry but Sony have really dropped the ball with this..I believe a trend has developed here with the xbox one slim - u.s and u.k.
