1 - That's USA, I live in Europe, only the 600euro model was available at launch

2 - 600dollars is a bargain in 2020, my phone cost more than that and I upgrade phones every 2 years. Minimum wages here is 1700dollars per month, 600 is barely more than a third of a months wages if you are on minimum which I am not. And 600 for an investment for the next 7-8 years is not bad at all

3 - Games have yes jumped in base price, they used to be 39.99pounds here in UK, 65 euros in Europe, now they are 45pounds in UK and 70 euros in Europe, and when you mention DLC and microtransactions, it means the real price for the complete games is more like 100euros now, add the paid online now, and you pay actually minimum 120 euros per game depends how long you stick to the online. Game prices have increased substantially, they are just hidden

4 - Yes resolution is important if things are equal, but they can never be equal at the same price point, you either sacrifice resolution, or graphics, or framerates, on PC I have the choice, on consoles I dont, most developers are pushing resolution if that means they will drop framerates and effects like AA. For me a good AA and good effects has more impact on image quality than resolution. Hence why I am probably moving to PC in January.

5 - You still don't get it about 4k and HDR, ps4 pro games look better on my projector without 4K and without HDR, and my TV is not cheap either, its a quality panasonic. Real life experience is more important than numbers on a piece of paper, in fact games look more beautiful on my brother plasma even if its 720p than on my 4k HDR, colours just look better on the plasma

6 - So you are saying the switch is much worse graphically than I thought? Way to make my point that switch is far too underpowered for next gen. Ill probably just emulate it on my PC and play with much better graphics, thanks Nintendo but the xbox series X is at least 30x more powerful, I might as well just sell my switch and never go back to Nintendo, one more reason for going PC instead of consoles for next gen.

No, it isnt, not for a videogame. Its very expensive and so is $499.

Get a job, 500dollars is 1 weeks work.
