I am VERY curious if either of them will push past that $500 barrier, since both have been burned by high-priced console launches in the past (Sony with the $599 PS3 and Microsoft with the $499 Xbox One)... |
I see no chance. History has shown us that $499 is too high. No way they're gonna go above that.
The very small caveat - if they market some version as a higher-end option than the standard console, it could go over $500. For example, if Sony calls the diskless version the standard PS5 and sells it for $499, they might charge $549 for the disk drive version. I think this would be a big mistake, but it's the only chance I see of either of them going above $499 at this point.
