$600 today is 471 in 2006 (ps3 release)
so value is much cheaper when ps3 was released in 2006 (Xbox stole a lot of PS market esp early years).... i think it is doable..... but still would hurt if xbox price theirs at 499

While I always understand this sort of sentiment, I must admit that I don't really get how that changes anything in the here and now.

As far as I am concerned, $599 was too much for a console in 2006. And it's too much for a console now.

If the PS5 is $599 then there is no way I am buying one until a price cut or sale. Of course I get that many others are willing to pay that price and that is fine. 

would you buy a cheaper digital only console if it is 100$ cheaper?
