Thats great for Sony Fans and All but why can't any one of these guys break news about the Nintendo NX Reveal or Form Factors :/
But that's how much the OG PS4 would be without being bundled with a game! I say $299 with a brand new game and $249 with no game.For holiday deals maybe, but as official MSRP it will be $299.
Since it wasn't confirmed here there is a good chance that psp like device from the earlier rumour was the NX.
Maybe Sony look at sales number of one S recently, see the end of PS4 domination, sell it lower as last ditch effort.
For some reason, the Slim makes me feel like the Neo will be a ways off yet, perhaps next Spring. This is based on nothing of any substance...
I have to agree with this especially if it doesn't have any UHD support like the one S does starting at $299But that's how much the OG PS4 would be without being bundled with a game! I say $299 with a brand new game and $249 with no game.

But when will the Neo go on sale WSJ?
I really wouldn't outright rule out 249 especially if it doesn't have UHD capabilities. It gives them a clear distinction when they try to sell the neo at a higher price as well. 249 slim for the price conscious and 399-449 neo for the hardcore. Last year Black Friday was 299 uncharted bundle and with the slim being cheaper to produce, I can definitely see them selling 249 bundles for this Black Friday and undercut Xbox one s at the same timeLOL! It's not gonna be $249. Sony knows they can sell shit ton at $299 and they will do exactly that.

You think Sony would bother with a slim that didn't significantly decrease manufacturing costs like all the others in the past have?Slim is OG PS4 replacement, price will be the same.
$299 slim
$449 Neo
I don't know if this is intentional or not by Sony but I've gotta figure that the slim PS4 will really bring down the trade in value of the regular PS4 for those looking to trade in their system and upgrade to the Neo

I wonder if the OG PS4 will have its value increased? Maybe I should keep it...

The Dragon has three heads
Morpheus (psvr)
Neo (ps4k)
And Trinity ( ps4 slim)
Agreed but if Scorpio miraculously takes off and there is demand for more powerful hardware and they are losing users then they might fast track it to 2018. I doubt Scorpio will take off anyways and start sellin huge numbers so ps5 in 2019 is a safe bet.While i think Sony are already planning for PS5, i don't think it'll come out a year after Scorpio*2018), that would be a bit too close to NEO, i'm guessing 2019 winter
A non-starter in what way? The slim is for the mass market and Neo is for the enthusiasts.
Is the NEO going to be enough of an upgrade to make selling my PS4 a good option? I just got it a few months ago...
I predict 200 for the Slim, 400 for Neo.

Of course but I think they will pass 50 dollars to the consumer and pocket the rest. Nothing Sony has done this generation has pointed to them not wanting to make good money off the hardware this time.
There are people here saying Neo will be below $399. I'm saying that's crazy talk. As you said, the slim will be mass market price, maybe $299 or even $250 at a stretch. The Neo is for enthusiasts, no less than $399, and maybe more with bundles or hard drive upsells.

Oh I thought you were saying it was impossible for it to be more expensive than $399. $399 is definitely the absolute minimum.
$350 Neo seems too good to be true, but my god would it move units at that price. Depends on how much subsequent revenue can be guaranteed per unit sold from software purchases.
PS4 is 349 right now.

I think it has value in splitting the difference between the Slim and Neo, but I don't see it holding much value to people that haven't yet purchased a PS4. It will be an overpriced slim where you are simply paying for a premium housing or it will be a gimped PS4 compared to the Neo.
Simply put it splits the difference but becomes no longer compelling beyond being the once desirable first incarnation of the PS4.

RIP OG PS4
I expect a $299 1 TB slim and $399 2 TB Neo.
That's what I'm saying! $299 with no game isn't any better of a value, it's worse in fact! And thus quite lame.With a game, so basically it's a $299 console. If the PS4 Slim hits with $0 price drop, that's super lame.
You cannot price the Neo at 449 imo
I wonder if a Slim will pay off for Sony
