Why would they announce preorders next week but not the price?

 

[ManaByte]

The pro bundle comes with two anniversary controllers not one. Dual sense edge and a standard dualsense.

Yes but the Pro includes a controller for $699.

 

[nial]

I hope its not just Horizon Zero dawn remaster is the highlight of the show.

Astro Bot is their 30th anniversary celebration game.

 

[dano1]

Damn you Sony!!
I was just going to buy the black plates….

 

[Fess]

No way this reach my end of the world area but if it does I would buy it. Best special edition console ever during my life time.

 

[ViperZombie]

So no console covers for OG PS5 owners?

[Mr Hyde]

Since its the 30th anniversary edition, the consoles should launch at 299$.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

Damn, not even going to try and get this.
This Pro will be sold out within 5 minutes...

 

[FoxMcChief]

I'll take your entire stock

Did you buy the PS Mini? It had identical USB cords. Very cool touch.

I might buy a controller, if they’re sold separately.

 

[RoboFu]

Well damn it i said if they did this I would buy one.

cant preorder fast enough!!

[trikster40]

Yup. This shall be mine.

 

[Rudius]

PS1 was an awesome console. PS5 Pro sucks ass!

Lol. The Pro isn't even out yet.

 

[Xtib81]

Looks sexy af. Will be too expensive though.

 

[phant0m]

The PS5 Pro one will be mine

 

[SportsFan581]

The original color scheme looks a lot better than the standard color on there.

 

[DryvBy]

Why would they announce preorders next week but not the price?

I have a 20th anniversary edition and the price difference was around $500 vs $400 for the same model. The 20th had a camera, special colored stand and that was it for extras. So I'm going to guess this will be near $800 with all the extra, maybe $850.

 

[Lambogenie]

Knew this was coming a mile off. Is it tempting to get a Pro now? Sure.. but I'm not rich.

Last time for the 20th, the PS4s were hard as nuts to get. Then you had lucky fuckers getting it for £19.94 in the UK in a pop up store. This time, for a Pro being mad expensive and there being over 12k, I don't think it'll be as hard to get. But who freaking knows. Nostalgia bait is strong!

Original PS5 colour scheme is glossy black with white, I'm not sure how the PSX grey would look with the black - It would look kind of off probably, like a half-assed attempt at recreating the PSX colour scheme. Having said that, I think that Sony already sells grey (silver) plates that look pretty dope.

[Sw0pDiller]

Are they doing a 30th anniversary disc drive? Otherwise a white drive attached to that will look stupid.

check out the video

 

[Renoir]

man.. they kept this in they're pocket this whole time. fok.
ima have to cop this.. cuz if i wait its going to $1200 for one.

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

PS1 was an awesome console.

The best console ever.

Nostalgia’s one hell of a drug

you’re forgetting that it includes the DualSense Edge which is $200 by itself

 

[Alebrije]

 

[FrankWza]

There's 2 consoles releasing. Pro and Slim. The slim comes with a standard DualSense

 

[Euler007]

Why would they announce preorders next week but not the price?

Because the special edition isn't targeted at price sensitive buyers.

 

[Sooner]

Yes but the Pro includes a controller for $699.

The Edge controller is $200 by itself (the non-special edition)

 

[graywolf323]

There's 2 consoles releasing. Pro and Slim. The slim comes with a standard DualSense

the slim wouldn’t be priced at $800-850 based on the logic in the post I quoted

 

[DeepSpace5D]

 

[Nydius]

I really want that stand alone DualSense. I’ve been wanting a classic color motif since the damn thing came out and I saw people manually modding theirs to look “classic”.

But knowing Sony they’ll want a ridiculous amount more than any other “limited edition” controller and it’ll be sold out and scalped in minutes.

 

[Mr Moose]

Surprised how much a colour change can make a console look so damn good.

 

[gothmog]

Why would they announce preorders next week but not the price?

Because you're not the target audience

 

[Sooner]

Somehow they would have to sell the piece of shit that is the Playstation portal.

The Portal is fucking awesome. I use it every day.

It even works away from home. If I don't have WiFi, I use my cellphone as a Hotspot and it works great.

I honestly can't imagine going back after having both Switch and now PS5 + Portal.

At $199, it's a no-brainer - even if you only use it around the house.

 

[FrankWza]

Maybe not but there's a better chance that it will be close vs the Pro price

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Why would they announce preorders next week but not the price?

So the talk isn't that Sony is releasing a $999 console.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

[TheAmazingSpiderMan]

Sony remastering consoles now..

Wonder what the pro bundle will cost, most likely $999 or higher.

 

[gothmog]

Stick to what you know, Paul. Playing Destiny 2 and telling us when it's good.

 

[MrJangles]

Should have been originally released like that. Amazing how much a difference a simple change of color makes to such an ugly console.

 

[saintjules]

Is it too much to ask Sony to break up the normal pro preorders and this LE preorder so the website doesnt fold under the weight of scalpers trying to snag that LE?

I get the feeling they will do the queued room thing like they did for the base PS5 in 2020.

Yeah but it looks like this comes with the Pro controller which is like €200.

Because you're not the target audience

I am and I want to know how much I'm paying.

So the talk isn't that Sony is releasing a $999 console.

Yeah I get that but they have to tell us pretty soon.

 

[CuteFaceJay]

this gonna be like what they did with the PS4 in the London pop-up shop?

 

[Parazels]

It's a crime they don't have Ridge Racer Remaster for the anniversary!

 

[gooner4life_uk]

Even my wife saw this on youtube and said oh wow it's like the old playstation colour, she's totally in on me getting it.

 

[Morrie’s wig shop]

Knew they were gonna do this, called it last year

 

[Putonahappyface]

Why isn't Ass of Can Whooping in here?
