The Mac is still techniclay a home computer, like the Amiga, commondore 64 or Fujitsu FM Towns. Apple isnt releasing their OS on PC, you have to buy their hardware in order to enjoy their software, sounds familiar?

Nah, they said devs can do with it what they want :)

Sony said that they will still have the PS5, Microsoft stated that this is the End of Generations for the Xbox, there is a difference and neither of them are doing what Apple do, unless Microsoft, and Sony, start to overprice their products and release 1 per year.

Much of what you said make a lot of sense.

Except OP said the extra power won't bring better graphics to Scorpio because PS4 will have to big of a lead to make devs make a much better version for Scorpio when they also keep the compatibility. He may be wrong and devs use the power, but I didn't see he saying graphics wouldn't matter to him, but that it would hardly have better graphics or that common folks would care.

Hahahahahaha you made my day

Power in fact doesn't mean success. PS2 dominated its gen despite being the weakest console (and the hardest to program). But I wish sony could reformulate Neo in order to catch Scopio power.

Just that for most games market lead wont matter. Basically every multiplat comes for PC. Yeah, some japanese games no mainstream customer cares about aren't. But that's it. One damn CoD is proably worth hundreds of 'minor' japanese games when it comes to console sales. Like it or not.

So here we are, games get developed for Windows PC, Windows Box and PS4. Actually Scorpio get's higher quality assets for free because of PC games. And with DirectX and Windows all that stuff can be ported easier. Actually it's not even a traditional port.

So, why the hell should the extra power not matter. Even if it's just another silly resolutiongate. So no, more power will be relevant. Not because of market leadership but because it's a no issue to use it. Again, the simple reason is PC gaming and Windows.

P.S.:

@ruler: Technically a modern Mac is a PC running on MacOS. It's not a home computer, hasn't been for almost a decade.

Yep you can disagree with him and say that the extra power will be used because of the reasons you gave (which might not end up happening since we have also seen with PS4 and X1 the 3rd party don't make much of their time optimizing the versions. So it Scorpio is 30% more powerfull they may not really use it), but you can't say that he said graphics is irrelevant.

I think Neo will benefit in a similar way how the Wii did as the In-between console in terms of price of entry for both, console and VR gaming.

As long as Sony keep churning out the exclusives, the power difference won't matter as you will never see those games elsewhere just like during the PS2 days.

I think the price point of the Scorpio will need to be spot on because if it's too high, they will lose a lot of their PC / Xbox customers to PC, and that doesn't necessarily mean UWP will benefit outside of the exclusives.
