Prediction: PS5 is going to cost 599$ and it will be ok.

I personally believe that, if it's 600 dollars, the PS5 WILL suffer.

But Sony is in a great position with the PS4 that, even if the first year is a bit rough, they can easily weather it, especially with that first year(assuming most games shown will be released in the first year).

Plus, I fully expect this to be 499 dollars, or at least the digital version to be. At that price, it won't take off like the PS4 did, at least initially, but they will be fine.

Gaming in general has become more and more accepted by the overall public, and thus more people are spending money on it and are ok with spending more on a specific hardware.
