Consider your opinion established, despite little or no support for it. You also fell into an appeal to authority despite those voices also failing to support their perspective.
I mean, you claim this will fail because other examples failed, but you have yet to reasonably tie the circumstances of their failures to the PS4k. Is the market the same as it was in 3DO's time? No, it would be preposterous to claim that. What about consumer expectations? Nothing whatsoever is shared among those examples and the Neo except that they're iterative.
Yet that is the crux of your argument. I think it's safe to say that your fears continue to be unfounded.
Where did I asert it will fail? I am voicing the possibility of it having a negative effect. And only voice that possible outcome because of reactions from people with more gaming knowledge than myself like Jeff Gerstmann. Who voice more about uncertainty and bring up similar points that I di d about possible outcomes.
Also using examples of something from the past doesn't invalidate my opinion as you seem keen on trying to dismantle.
I also said I want this thing to prove me wrong. Your attitude in dismissing my opinion on a board about discussing it is what I and others have issues with. Also talking with a condescending tone among others is also unneeded.
People who bring up the ice cream bullshit I called our I'll admit in a childish manner. But something that is and has been prevalent in other ps4k threads.
And since Osiris in another thread added that the word port came up a lot in his leaks that also adds to my opinion in the discussion and supports what the examples including the video discussion in the lobby, beyond videos.
If you want a discussion that's all about the pros of this system then go make one. But this thread is about someone's reaction though emotional is valid since the uncertainty of this console in the market and it's possible impact is also somewhat shared by other media heads.
