Sony and MS are both getting boosts from have two SKUs and none of that "cosmetic upgrade only" bullshit, PS4 Pro and XBX1 are both huge upgrades and are buoying the "senior" years of these consoles. It's basically a sales fountain of youth. Mid-gen refreshes are the way of the future, Nintendo likely will follow suit with Switch, DSi and New 3DS already were going in that direction. |
The PS4 Pro plays 0 game that the base PS4 cannot play, unlike the 3DS. You say mid-gen refresh is the future - Nintendo has been doing that for generations now and by releasing systems with exclusives as well. And of course Nintendo will do that with the Switch, how else would they prolong the life of the system? It’s what they’ve been doing for a long time now. The other thing is that the PS4 Pro is still way above mass market price and makes up a fraction of the PS4 sales and is not intended as a replacement for the regular PS4.
