The dress is pretty, of course with the colors that recall the PSX. On the other hand, a different design, similar to that of the 1994 console, would have been even more interesting. It would have a real added value, for a truly unique device (or almost).
But I guess that upset the design also means changing the internal construction, as saying that it is impossible.
In short, the PS4, supposed to celebrate the popular success of the Playstation brand, was to be sold at Colette. Colette ..? In other words, a sale reserved for an elite, quite opposite the city public. It was clear that the case was folded in 1h, and copies sold at auction the same evening. Sony has understood and canceled, preferring to organize online sales, more democratic. Ok.
Alas, apparently, all the copies have not been sold. A "second service" made that chance and coincidence, a number of journalists / familiar faces of the JV could access these unsold copies. As I have read on a forum, "some have won the draw what they missed scratch" ... Failing to be well born, it may be well placed. Ok.
And for others, what is left? Well, fortunately for them, a cohort of New Sellers has thought of them from the start. Thus, you can, with a few miserable thousand, obtain this PS4 Special Edition 500. The law of supply and demand, coughed ... Ok.
Still, why I will take to 40,000 while another New Seller (or rather an old one that does not assume the sale on its normal account), much nicer, meanwhile sells 3,000? In addition to the shipping costs are almost given: less than 3 ...
And if in your opinion, how much should be given to Sony for PS4 to produce a unique world with his name and picture on it? 5000? At that price, and since it is one single copy, I could sell 100,000, right?
Truce of irony! What I remember the end of that PS4 Special 20 years is that it was not for me, for me, since Playstation player 94. As many, this event will remain in my craw, as if you were invited to a party and having arrived on site you are repressed because you do not have the VIP card ... But it's okay, that disappointment will not prevent me from continuing to play my PS4 my PS3 slim, my 3 PS2 (3 models) and my PSX Jap & Fr: it is my passion, not a check to four zeros given to a stranger.
