“Let’s charge full on handheld console money for a device that can’t function away from a PS5!”

This should be doa but it’s a PlayStation, it’ll probably sell 30 million.

I suspect they may have chosen just the right price. People have paid more than this for controllers that don’t come with a screen attached.

That’s more for enthusiast hardware. People pay $1000 for keyboards, but that doesn’t mean they’ll drop $200 for a remote streaming device.

It’s literally the same price as the dualsense edge. You overestimating the capacity for reason among “console enthusiasts”.

Like I said, I’d consider that enthusiast level hardware. People who game “professionally” or love real flashy things. You can also spend $1000s to make coffee, or get a $10 French press.

So what’s your point? That people who will pay this price do exist, or that they don’t?

Because now I feel like you’re trying to claim the former, to argue the latter.

A streaming device is not enthusiast hardware.

Again, I’m confused, are you saying there are people who will buy this, or not?

And that’s a subjective and arbitrary claim. It has no logical merit in arguing for or against whether people will consider this thing worth the price.

Not, but I think the point has been lost at this point so let’s just move on.
