If rumors are true, they are more powerful versions of this gen systems. It's looking like console generations might become more like iPhone generations.

Oh that shit again.
I don't have a Xbox yet so I guess whatever, I'd just be jumping in with the better version when I get one later this year, but I hate the idea of replacing my PS4 but I totally will, I just know it.
These fuckers are evil.
Eh. If they don't force you to upgrade to every single model, then I don't see the big deal. If they start pushing these things out every 4-5 years, and you don't start feeling left behind until the following model, I don't see it being an issue. If it is 2-3 years and they make the previous model obsolete, then yeah, that would be lame. They also need a good trade up policy.
I can't see me "upgrading" any time soon, if at all. I bought all the systems this gen because I'm nuts and around it all day. But there's really not been an SSJN "must have" game that makes me glad I own either Xbone or PS4.
Hopefully that changes with No Man's Sky.
My future looks to be PC + Nintendo. Neither of the other consoles have the exclusives to warrant keeping up with them.
I just know that there's a part of me that will think "hey I don't need it, but Ratchet and Clank won't ever have slowdown when things go nuts with the new model? Better get that for future games as well!"
Suddenly I'm replaced every two to three years, just like my GPU even though I don't "have to".
That's why they're evil. Not because they're making me, but because they're taking advantage of me and my one weakness with this hobby.
If NHL and The Show were on PC with cross play, I'd jump ship to PC. If it weren't for a handful of games, and friends on only PS4 or only Xbone, I wouldn't look back.
If Xbone Scorpio gets Rift support, I'll probably switch day one, but not sure better graphics or frame rate would get me to update right now.
The NX has no reason to be shown if "insiders" are to be trusted.
They're claiming it would be comparable to an XBO, barely.
If they show that at e3 with all of the potential dick swinging, they'll be laughed off the stage(internet).
If that's the case, they are going to be in some trouble no matter when they show their mystery machine. Not sure what they have planned that they think will help them compete with MS or Sony.
All the internet bitching and moaning about 60fps and 1080p every time a game is released is why we are getting hardware upgrades. And Nintendo can die for all I care. I have no need for hardware from them. Plus my Zelda fix has been filled with Dark Souls and The Witcher 3.
