    Okay, this is a megaton.

    If any of you haven't yet purchased a system because you don't know which one to get, the answer is now clear. The future of console gaming belongs to Microsoft and Nintendo.

    I dont know what Sony is doing or what they should be doing at this point.
    They are leading the console war by quit a margin, but this isnt good for their future business.
    They have the 1st party games, but literally everything else will be under the Microsoft umbrella, at least it feels like it.

    Q4 2024. PS5 with detachable disc drive is coming first later this year though. I haven’t even gotten a regular PS5 yet but am planning on it soon. I don’t feel like waiting for the Pro. If the Pro is that much better I’ll probably get it and give the original PS5 to a friend

    Yeah I don't see how much better it could possibly be. I'm guessing they just add more storage. Not sure of the point of a detachable disc drive? I just added 2TB storage to my PS5. It only comes with like 800GB out of the box

    I think I would keep both if the Ps5 pro is real. But in all honesty I'd rather this be fake news
    To keep the cost down. I'm not sure if even next year the Ps5 will get a price cut, but in order to keep a hypothetical Ps5 pro at the same price they'd have to sell it as digital only with an optional disc drive for an extra added/optional cost.

    Yeah I don’t like this trend of them releasing a slightly upgraded version of the same console in the middle of the console cycle. Unfortunately that’s probably gonna become the norm. Just release the best s--- you can make out of the gate. I know tech capabilities accelerate fast, but I doubt they’re gonna give the PS5 Pro some sort of major upgrade that wouldn’t have been possible to just put in the original PS5.
