PlayStation 4 price could come in above $400

4.6
According to a Japanese news source, the next-generation PlayStation 4 going to come in around $400.

A local newspaper made the claim that Sony had set the price internally above 40,000. This figure would roughly be about $430 at the current exchange rate.

Despite the claim from the newspaper, there are no official figures to support this. The price is rumored to be coming in around $399, but given the recent specifications of the PS4, a $400 price point would most likely mean that the console would be sold at a loss.

Sony's next-generation console will utilize the Gaikai cloud technology that Sony had purchased last year.

Jamy Why is everybody in this thread moaning about the price? The PS3 luanch price was 600$ to begin with.


I agree, Sony and Microsoft need to make revenue. It's not even that bad of a price, but it is a little more than the Wii U I believe :P


The WiiU, haha, good one...

For a brand new console that people spend a lot of time and money making, a starting price of $400 isn't too bad, considering that the PS4 was like 600$ on the release date.

If they make it too much more than the Xbox their sales will suffer for it.

Thats about 230 - 260 in the UK, cheaper than usual, its usually like 350 - 450 for the PS3 when that was released.
