I wish.

If it were to happen around PS5, I would assume it's possibly gonna be some Xperia-centric platform, provided that Sony can lock it down well enough to their own phones (unlikely that they could!).

Too bad you missed the Vita fire sales.

Your profile pic is misleading. You're not a peaceful burger-loving dude. You're a dream crusher ;-;

Burger lovers cannot be peaceful, as per the "meat is murder" part of the "people eating tasty animals (PETA)" paradigm.

It's a GT sport PS4 exclusive console. It's revealed on twitter now.

I would have to assume a PS4 or Pro GTS bundle, with a custom color or design.

I do wonder how much it bothers PS that XB1X is physically smaller than Pro. Not by a lot, but the fact its more powerful and smaller, has to make PS feel they need to shrink the Pro asap, no? Question is, does PS have access to a smaller APU node, or are they willing to use more advanced cooling at a higher cost so the console doesn't sound like a jet again? They could probably do either or both, without changing the $399 price tag. Do you keep Pro as is, and drop the price to $349, or spend more to create a Pro slim, and keep the price at $399?

I think it's too late in the gen to have another revision though. 2019 would be a realistic release but that'll be the year before the PS5 is released.

Well it wouldn't be typical. Usually a slim comes 2 years later at the earliest. I'm pretty sure I've read multiple times that Nvidia's Volta chips are using TSMC's 12nm process, and PS4/Pro use TSMC, which means Pro (and PS4) could move from 16nm to 12nm. They wouldn't necessarily need to shrink PS4 again if they didn't want to, where as they could shrink Pro down to the OG PS4's size most likely. This should technically also make it cheaper to produce, so it could possibly cut $50 off the price if PS wanted to. Showing and launching a Pro slim, cheaper or not, around the same time as the XB1X launch, woudn't hurt PS at all.

Looks like its a PS4 GTS custom design and colors though. Doesn't mean a Pro slim if off the table eventually. PS did say at E3 that they had lots more planned to show throughout the rest of the year. A Pro slim at E3 2018 would be more likely though.

get them unrealistically high, and good things might happen.

but I doubt that will be a special edition Pro, I'd assume they'd show it in the video if they had one planned

maybe the Slim 1TB is their most profitable (per unit) SKU and hence receives this special treatment
