Yes it will be funny to see someone that is dedicated to a game that he play on PC all the time deciding "I'll go the cheaper route and sub for Stadia".

I'm not underestimating nothing. If you can't manage or plan the layout or your power outlets that is a different problem, I was just giving you a solution for what you were complaining and then you gave a new problem, do you want me to also solve it or you'll find a new excuse on why you can't have a 20 power outlet available in that place? I sincerely doubt any reasonable person would even need more than 10 power outlets available in any TV set.

In my house I had two triple power outlet, one that I could have the receiver, Subwoofer and TV all with individual power outlets to not have heat issues, and the other where I had my extension with line filter to feed the lower power equipment (basically modem, router, cable tv and 3 available to console).

You gifting your PS4 was your decision not a need, and you certainly could have got 150 more or less reduction in your cost for the Pro if you decided to do it. Same as you could have paid 40 for PSN instead of 60 each single of the 5 years. You don't need to put your bad decisions to increase your cost of gaming to make it comparable with what will be minimum on Stadia.

Correcting by inflation PS4 was the cheapest console Sony ever released, not sure where you got the notion that it is getting more expensive. You don't need HDD (which also are cheaper than on PS3 time) and also you don't need to buy extra controllers (also something that didn't become more expensive). But by all means build your PC, that still won't make your point right.

In the other threads that you were complaining about paying 100 more for PS5 than on PS4, and having to buy HDD (which you don't need, unless you don't want to manage the games you have installed) and a new controller if it isn't BC (well they never really were before), looked like you were just looking for excuses to justify a decision instead of real issues. And also seemed like you were tight on budget, because if you can purchase something you like and want you don't go out of your way to create hurdles.

Are you repeating the same mistakes over and over.  In simple terms you are taking your thoughts and attempting to make them mine.  

1) I am digital only, so yes a HDD upgrade is required (for me)

You can be digital only all you want, disc games also need to be installed and mostly need to update so need to be installed. Still hardly you'll need 10 games installed at once to have HDD mandatory unless again you don't want to just manage your data. And even if you want to use a HDD you can use whatever you have, and if you want to buy new then it also is cheaper than before.

2) I play couch coop regularly with the wife, so an extra controller is required (for me)

Great, even if not that many games have this, still controller didn't get more expensive than before.

3) I relocated from family, my bother and I stay in contact via souls and MHW, so PSN+ is required (for me)  

Seems like we are in a post-apocalipse setting where that is your only way to talk to family. My family is quite scattered, still we manage to find other options to stay in touch. But sure if you want to keep PSN+, and again don't want to even purchase from discount, the price of PSN+ haven't skyrocked.

Those are requirements for me.  Just because they aren't for you doesn't mean they aren't for me.

Just because they are requirements for you doesn't mean they have changed at all from this gen. So you using them as problems for you if PS5 is 500USD are just excuses, even more when you say you have no problem on budget.

Given how much I invested into my ps4, I am starting to think other options maybe a better choice.  Nothing more.  Sorry if that hurts your Sony based feelings.  

No need for the fanboyism accusation, you can have better options than PS all you want, like going to PC like 30 years ago if you so much wished. I have no hurt feelings, just replying to the points you make.

Edit

And I am not going to bother going over all the electronics I have hooked up.  The end message is you don't live in my house, thus wouldn't have the slightest clue how many consoles I own.  And yes, it is well beyond 10 power outlets.  I can count 14 outlets off the top of my head, without even really giving it effort.  

Ow the herculean effort to use a bigger power outlet and that need to have 10 consoles plugged at once in the same TV.
