If the PS4 was $599 AUD you'd probably still be getting a better deal.

Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Same in UK, feel like it's the US that's the only one not getting ripped off in this case.
£350 - $545, 145
£429 - $668, 169 difference(WUT)

Microsoft is ripping us off here! $24 is a dealbreaker.

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

This might be the problem. Sony knows that Australian Gamers like to get ripped off. You also bought a lot of Wii third party games. You've made your bed, now lie in it.

Damn right, way to many 3rd party games. I reckon its around 50-70 3rd party games on Wii.

Absolutely disgraceful, I think the wiiU was only around 50 dollars more in Australia for the basic than the US price, absolutely 0 reason for the ps4 to be $150 more expensive, just trying to rip people off.
