    PS5 Pro - only marginally better than an option that’s only $450.

    Steam Deck OLED - only marginally better than an option that’s only $300.

        I think mid life upgrades targeting new customer and hard core types.

        Regular folks just buy generational upgrades.

          Like, they’re cool and tempting. But not anywhere near the price of a full unit when I have an already perfectly functioning one! If I could say swap the panel on the Deck (with relatively little effort), I would likely consider buying an upgrade kit but that’s not possible. Same thing with the PS5: if I could just buy the new gpu and replace the old one, I probably would. Never mind that it’s an apu so in this instance it’s really replacing the entire guts of the device, that’s a minor detail XD
