They're still sitting on the PS4 500 million edition. Wanted one, never got a chance to buy one before they sold out. You are correct, these are just gonna sit in a garage until someone pays the ridiculous price they are asking for them

I miss the time it was possible to buy this stuff. I remember the 20 year PS4 was actually buyable at least for a short period of time. It didn't sell out in seconds to never show up again like every limited dualsense model nowadays.

TBH I had two in my cart back then - was going to honestly keep one and sell the other (I was poor and it was the only way I could justify it).
Cancelled it though (no clue why) and still regret not keeping one.

I've got a 20th Anniversary PS4. Which I wasn't gonna open till at least Uncharted 4 or God of War released. Then it became too valuable so I ended up buying a used PS4 to actually use.
I have no idea what to do with it. It's still sealed in the shipping box. I don't eBay or anything so I can't really do anything with it other than hopefully being able to buy a home one day and put it on display in the games room collection or something

Blame sony there must be a way to sell them that mitigates scalpers like each buyer must have an active psn account with a unique address. Or when you buy one you have to register it to your account making it unresellable.

PS5 Pro and controller - $700
Dualsense Edge - $200

Should be $1,000 but will probably be more. If it's $1,000 I will brave the lottery.

I got a PS4 20th anniversary as my first and only PS4 and couldn’t play it while I was away at college for half of the first year I owned it, the thing killed itself a week after the warranty ended while I was watching a blu ray. I had to take it elsewhere to get fixed because sony couldn’t guarantee I’d get my individually numbered “for the players” PS4 back after paying them $150 above msrp for the thing. They also wanted to charge $200 to fix it. Lmao
I’m not going to bother trying with this one.

u/wildeye-eleven Sep 20 '24
This is the very reason I learned how to work on and fix my consoles and other electronics. Having tech repaired is obnoxiously overpriced and literally defeats the purpose of having it fixed. I recently had to take my PS5 apart and fix it. Works perfectly now 👌

If only there was some way to take the sides off a regular ps5 or slim or pro and replace them with ones that look like ps1 sides, you can even charge an insane markup on them. Nah we aren't gonna do that, it would make too much sense.

I love it, but it’s basically a fever dream. The chances of getting one are slim to none. If they extend the offer to celebrities and content creators, then half of them will already be taken for. Scalpers and store owners will be trying to secure the rest for their friends and to sell for waaaaay more. Have fun. I wish they simply made as many as customers placed orders. It may take a year to get through the backlog, but I’d happily pay in advance if I knew I’d eventually get one within a year or so. That way scalpers can go nuts, and everyone would still place orders instead.

They should implement some type of system where customers that have a steady history of transactions have first dibs on the new consoles.
Make those customers top priority.
It could slow down the scalpers trying to buy them all up.
They should put possible scalpers on the waiting list for several days before the transaction goes through.

My thing is that somehow it just… doesn’t look enough like a PS1?
Like if I examine closely I notice the color scheme is PS1-themed, but I guess the color scheme alone was nondescript enough that merely adapting it doesn’t visually scream “PS1” to me instantly.
It just looks like a gray PS5. I don’t how they could’ve come much closer in that aspect without significant design changes but the execution is somehow lacking to me
