People better get used to that pricing range. If they think they're getting a PS6 for substantially cheaper a few years down the line, lol, they probably have another thing coming. |
They are banking on PRO selling less than the old PRO cause it lacks that 4k bump and has no definition as hard as they try to market the big three features fuck all people are going to see that as reason even at 599 or the current PS5 price point. If they thought it'd sell more they'd eat some of the cost, they want the whale money that they got from the portal and stuff like the elite controller, nothing more. They'll eat the cost on ps6 same as every generation or they'll only have whales buying them and they won't sell software where they make that money back plus profit. That's all this is, no sign of the future.
If what you say were to come to be and for the cbox too, then the industry will look a lot different. Nintendo will control the console market. Big AAA machines will stall and possibly die. It'll be PC + Nintendo and there won't be enough people buying in to PS/Xbox for them to make big profits on their software cut to continue existing in the space as a hardware manufacturer. They'll be two very big publishing companies. I suppose this is happening to MS right now so perhaps, maybe.... quite possibly you may be right.
