Would you have bought PS4 Pro and/or Scorpio if available on Launch Day for more?

If there's an option and it seems worth it then yeah I would consider the more expensive one. I figure it's a better reason than the PS3 Launch that had a ~$100 price increase just for extra storage.

I am fortunate enough to have money to buy what I want. With that being said, I always go for top tier products IF the product offers value to me. Am I getting my moneys worth? Is this something I'll be using for a while? Have I enjoyed past iterations of said products? That being said, I would most likely buy the more powerful version if that option was available.

Probably. However I prefer that they wait about 3 or 4 years before bringing out a more powerful model because by then they’re able to squeeze out something with a better power/performance ratio as well as something that would be a bit more stable.

If the price is worth it, then sure. An extra $100 or $200 for the best performance all gen is fine for me. I own a Pro solely for that experience.

@Archangel3371: But they're really not. They are able to offer more power at a tdp that makes the package "affordable". Think of it this way: after two or three years, the PS5 Pro would be cheaper to make because that technology would match the thermal performance to make it so.

Take a look at the heat-sink on a launch PS3 versus the PS3 Super Slim. Same concept (and man, that thing was a monster!)

Maybe it’s psychological, but I wouldn’t feel right about my purchase if it was the lesser of 2 or whatever Xboxes. I’d definitely buy the most premium Xbox if given the choice.

I would buy the most powerful model knowing that along the way a more powerful console will probably be released.

@phbz: Haha. That's probably true.

Yes, I believe in spending more to get the best quality for items that I value.

Either I'm going to buy the best version available or I'm not going to buy it at all because I know that if I just settled for the cheaper version, it would just make me unhappy knowing that I'm stuck with an inferior version.

I hope they have a disc drive

No matter what pricepoint you launch at you'll always be able to put better hardware 3 years down the road at the same price. How is it any different than a pc gamer upgrading their rig every few years?

If I had to choose, I choose the pro ver.

No, I wouldn't. I wasn't THAT interested in the Sony exclusives. I just wanted to try out some of them for a low price. I feel I made the right choice. My Switch is more fun.

Yes.

I hope Sony/Microsoft don’t do midgen refreshes anymore. I would rather buy the expensive version at launch.

PS5 already has my money. Doesn’t matter the cost. lol

Yes of course.

I called the multi sku launch for next gen, ages ago.

Depends. If the extra cost is just for storage, I'll pass. If it's for performance or another features, then maybe -- the additional cost would be the deciding factor, not the performance.

I can easily afford an expensive console, and since I love gaming it is a no-brainer : I would gladly had paid 700 USD or whatever for the xbox one x at launch.

Yes, I hate playing games on weak hardware when there is a better option available.

No, the console model will start resembling PC hardware, which I don't want. To me the point of the mid gen consoles was to attempt 4K for the new 4K TVs, Unless they plan to make a mid gen refresh console targeting 8K I'd rather they drop the mid gen refresh.

Create one decent console at launch and release it for around $400 and then stick with it for 5-7 years (slim models are acceptable).

@APiranhaAteMyVa: Sony will start selling 8k TVs in the US this year.

Sure would!
