If it’s new and shiny and NTSC-J, I’ll buy it.

BPX024: Time to Say Goodbye

I really am starting to come around to the idea that within the next six or so months it'll be time to trade in the PS4 before it takes any major hit on value as I'm really doubtful about anything exclusive of worth hitting next year. Buying a PS5 just feels like a forgone conclusion at this point with Xbox being out the running and Switch already sorted so I don't mind the idea of having a PS5 early on as it's impossible not to get the moneys worth from the system over the years.

The PS4 launch was a dud for me personally. I ended up with games I barely played and it wasn't until the Destiny Alpha that I felt the machine started to realise its potential.
Realistically PS5 and Nintendo makes sense as a combo, but with Game Pass I've found myself using my XBox One X quite a bit. And Game Pass plus backwards compatibility may mean an instant library from day one. I'd love to be able to reduce the number of machines I own but I suspect it's going to be hard to avoid the exclusives. So I'll probably end up with both machines although I'm not sure it makes sense at launch.

I’ll say goodbye as soon as the next version comes out, Xbox Two & PS5, there’s absolutely no point missing launch years and then playing catchup years later. Chances are PS5 will be backward compatible, at least with PS4, so I can shift onto that with the game I own already. Same with next Xbox, I’ll be able to shift my Xbox360/One library to it and continue playing.
We shall see today if Google throw a spanner in the works by releasing actual hardware and not some kind of streaming controller/stick, streaming with my current BB is great for 1080p streaming TV but 4K HDR gaming will be out of the question. My BB has been 7-10mb for 6 years now, I’m now more likely to die of old age before I see an upgrade in my area.

I can't remember playing any current-gen games on my One, it's mainly BC 360 games, and not everything works, so I've still kept the 360 connected up for the odd game like Katamari or Import Tuner Challenge.
I really loved the 360 and am gutted MS threw away any chance of being competitive from the moment it was announced.
Realistically, I don't care when the new consoles come out as I've got loads and loads to play.
I just hope they don't turn off support for games really quickly, as we're getting to the point where consoles will become disposable, rather than retro that you can play until they break.
