On usage I would like that games that doesn't come with formal PS4Pro patches get some sort of auto improvements as X1X is said to do.

You mean...like Boost Mode.

Seriously, people should know until now to take everything MS promises with a grain of salt.

US signup appears to require PS Now as well. Considering a PS Now app auto-downloaded a few days ago (and promptly deleted, LOL), I'm guessing 5.0 will have something to do with it.

I've said this since years...they should offer people who still own original PS1/2/3 games and are subscribed to PS Plus those games on PS Now for free. Would be a nice move to counter missing backwards compatibility. Not saying they really need it but it would be a customer friendly move for sure.

Last I remember Sony said titles that didn't receive a patch would work same as PS4 because PS4Pro would block half the processing capabilities to ensure no bugs surface.

CD playback finally arriving?

Maybe Cassette playback too? I can listen to all my 90s tapes while playing driveclub!

If they can't change IDs because their database doesn't allow it they can do this: let us transfer all our trophies and game libraries to a new PSN ID.

Pretty sure that breaks some kind of fundamental law of Sony or some such.(people have been wishing for this since the inpcetion of PSN, I bet)

My wishlist:

  • Full wishlist functionality: they added a wishlist feature to the webbrowser store almost 2 years ago but never did really anything with it besides being able to look at your own wishlist and the wishlists of your friends. Give us a notification on our PS4s and/or send an email to our email-address when something on our wishlist is on sale, and let us gift content to friends. Also add the ability to add and remove games to/from our wishlist and the ability to watch our own and our friends' wishlist to the PS4 itself 
  • System wide downsampling for people with a PS4Pro and 1080p TV
  • Bring back the old notification list
  • Being able to delete a game's DLC from the HDD without also having to delete the game itself
  • Trophy Tracker (for example if you look at Rocket League's "Far, Far Away...: Drive a total of 50km" trophy while you don't have it you can see how much you've driven)
  • Option to download PS4 PSNow games to your PS4 (not sure if this would require a firmware update, but it would improve the service a lot)

I'm pretty happy with the layout and features as they are. It would be nice on the pro if we 1080p users could choose a 4k output that would automatically downsample, though. 

 

Not a chance in hell it happens, bit I would also like to have PS1 classics on the PS4, if only so I can continue my streak of playing Symphony of the Night on as many systems as possible.

I never finished that game.  Got pretty far then couldn't figure out where to go next and the guides didn't help.  Shame as it was actually really fun
