We've seen in the past a limited edition ps4 + game cost quite a bit more. But maybe in this case they just decided to be generous. After all they probably have a handsome margin on the Pro already.
I'm caught between 2 minds. On 1 hand they could easily afford a $50 cut to both models. it would drive big sales in December and January in preparation for MHW.
On the other hand though the ps4 between now and next summer has an extremely strong line up WW. So at the current high price they would still sell a shit ton. Sony might not want to lose that revenue. And then when the summer comes they can cut the price then.

You could be on the money with that last part. Maybe Sony dont think they extra sales will cover the loss in revenue.
They would need about 14k extra sales per 100k units sold (this is just an example) to make up the $50 loss and perhaps they dont see that happening (with X1 and first Switch holiday season) And with the bundles, they are most likely taking a hit on profit since its not their game they are bundling.
So maybe. But yeah, a $50 cut would be good yeah.

That's a very valid point. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what they do
