I am going to be picking up a PlayStation 4 in the next few months. This is going to make it harder for me to choose between a Pro and Slim (assuming this comes to Canada). Does anyone have suggestions for me?

I am considering the Pro mainly because of better frame rates and partially because of downsampling and also just in case I get a 4K monitor/TV in the future. The downside is it is $500 CAD without any game.

I am consider the Slim because it is...well..slim. But also because it costs $350 CAD with Uncharted 4 (and it also leaves me with enough money to buy the Switch and PS4 games that I want without having to wait).

Any thoughts? Should I maybe get the Slim first to enter the eco-system and then upgrade in a year or two when the Pro is cheaper?

Stick with Switch.

If you still want a PS4 and have a tight budget, it's always best to wait for the holiday deals because Sony shuffles SKUs and bundles repeatedly.

I might just do that. Last year there was a Slim bundle for $300 that I missed, so I would not be surpised that there might be similar deals this holiday for the Slim (or maybe even an official price cut) and maybe even some deals for the Pro.
