Ps5 very expensive

No, not worth it. Games are dated. Unless you don't mind playing old games such as GOW . Save up for PS5 or get a OLED switch instead to be more futureproof.

Hunt for used. Then the games also slowly find and buy used. Still worth it I would say

i'm also thinking to buy used ps4, switch oled as second option since the game is a bit pricey for me...but still can consider switch oled for a portable use...

still worth. games are cheap and physical copy still exist on the market

console service (cleaning, repair) available locally

if you want to play those old ps4 games then yes

how much is switch game generally?

never worth already, most gamer will eventually port to PC / Laptop , ps is waste of money already. Last time when game were just exclusive console.



unless u want to be like japanese ppl and emulating them who see pc / laptop as work and console as gaming

PS5 Pro already heavily rumoured to be released this year, and PS5 cycle is ending soon. You’re still thinking of getting a PS4? lol sedar diri la

aim for games.

not console


u xan buy used sell used.

almost can do it for free

Only played AAA and some fighting games, play everything in Steam platform much more worth it.

Currently rocking with my modded 3ds fuh free games

PS5 cycle end so soon? Usually a cycle is about a decade

New Switch coming this year or latest rumour delayed until early next year. Don't buy Switch now. It's definbitely the last year for the Switch before Switch 2.

No. Typical is 7 years, sometimes 6 years. History has proven it. But support usually ends in 10 years.

No not really. Already 4 years this year for PS5. Another 2-3 years max then PS6.

PS5 pricing is still very stiff ler.

Wait for PS5 Pro Max Ultimate............or PS6

I don’t think they will end the cycle so soon as PS5 is going into the usual high demand cycle after 4 years. The next 3 or 4 years will determine whether it will outsell PS4 and PS5 but looking at the sales, I think it will probably outsell PS4 and PS5 but can’t reach PS2 level which is god like sales numbers 😝

firmware hack or cartridge hardware mod?

that depends actually if switch 2 offers backwards compatibilty. if it is, then yes wait for switch 2. however can foresee the launch price go over 2k-3k ++ due to our shit currency. and plus, rumors- so take it with a grain of salt.

if TS want a cheap console and myriad library of games now, better get the OG switch. its cheap enough, you can get 1 around rm1.1k . A much better buy compared to the PS4.

PS4 feels terribly dated, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

i sell second hand now include the VR set

can pm me your budget and we can discuss

I play DOA xtreme 3 on my PS4.

Don't want get PS5. Don't have the games I interested.

new /AAA games- rm180-200

Others- within rm150 and below .

Sadly no PSPlus equivalent for switch. the games offered by NSO are pure rubbish.

If u can't afford then get ps4, if budget allow then ps5. Ps5 second hand games is cheaper than ps4. Wtf.

Depend on which tier of game you buying, I mainly buy first party game from nintendo only and it usually at the highest tier range.
for higher tier games (first party games from nintendo, USD59.99, except Zelda: TOTK, USD69.99) can be find around RM190~RM220 in shopee, but also depend on demand and popularity sellers may jack up the price. I usually wait until around RM200 or lower (with voucher) only consider to buy, but for my case I don't mind waiting longer to buy for cheaper price, or if 2nd hand is worth it, but most of the time not for game I looking for, the price just make me buy new instead because price differ very minimal.

All news points to Switch 2 being backward compatible. It would be suicidal for it not to be. Switch 2 will be based on NVIDIA chipset again. So backward compatibility is a given. Nintendo themselves has mentioned (indirectly) there will be ease of transition from current Nintendo accounts.

Just firmware hack, easy to set up

OLED switch = Futureproof?? kek... next gen Nintendo console gonna come out next year la wei..

Looking at Nintendo history, most likely it will have backward compatibility for same product line, unless they came out with new product line just like Wii -> Switch last time.

Console lifespan around 8-10 years
We are at 4th year. Still a long time

Nintendo will keep using Nvidia since AMD doesn't provide ARM SoC for handheld at the moment. Also ARM is better for handheld form factor since it's more power efficient and Nvidia new custom Tegra SoC (codename Drake based on leaks) is said to pack DLSS and RTX capabilities so it is very beneficial for Nintendo to stay on Nvidia route.

Rumors said graphics will be PS4 for handheld and PS4 Pro for docked mode. But it's still good for me since it's hybrid handheld ma, not your classic home console.

ya but ps4 already more than 10 years old and playing newer AAA games there is loud like jet engine. so i really dont recommend getting one this point unless you really want to play ps4 exclusive games

Was referring to PS5 lifespan

maybe save up for ps5 slim digital, you can add disc drive later.

i waited 3 years baru bought the ps5. my old ps4 disc drive rosak, and jet engine liao if play God of war.

if you are fine without playstation exclusive, you can get Xbox series S and Game pass. I've use it for over a year, i like it.

if you have kids, can get the oled nintendo switch.

Sony already announced la bro that they already entering the end cycle phase of this gen. PS6 will probably launch in late 2026 or early 2027 so that's about 6 years, 4 years shorter than usual console lifespan.

in terms of backward compatibility, ps5 can play most of your ps4 library of games.

but for series s/x it can play all of the xbox one, xbox 360 or some old 1st gen xbox game.

for switch, don't expect their game on sale digitally. better buy used copy if you're in tight budget. and their backward compatibility is non existence in Switch. my OG switch is sitting collecting dust right now. only turn on if there's a good AAA game comes out.

go for PS5 Pro

ps4 not worth it anymo imo.
what game u want to play?
list em & i'll direct u to which platform is worth it.

if mani is tight, u better off with a pc which is cheaper in the long run & games readily available at cheaper price from steam sale, epic's free games or xbox pc pass subscription.

Meh. Likely changed plan later.
PS4 was supposed to end life cycle 3 years back but prolong to make as alternative for people due to PS5 shortage.

oh mine is the same, i was wondering if worth to go for cartridge instead although i barely play 3ds anymore

so many game, so little time.

I want to highlight again. That is wrong. Console lifespan before the launch of each gen has always been 6 to 7 years, not 10 years.

PS1 - 1994/1995 (depending on Japan/US)
PS2 - 2000
PS3 - 2006
PS4 - 2013
PS5 - 2020

Lifespan from launch date to officially discontinued date. Because they are still selling though?

PS4 not discontinued yet. Still got games. Now is 2024. So already more than 10 years. Precious poster statement was wrong. PS5 will likely survive another 3 years after PS6 launch as well

Letting go of my ps4 pro for cheap, been severely under utilised. Chat to know more, pristine condition, test until satisfy.

Ppl waitin for Sony Ps6

You still talking ps4

don't listen to them man, get PS4 if you wanted to...
jailbreak that shit and play all the games for free...
If you never play any of the PS4 games before then you have this whole library of new games (they are new games to you if you never play them before) to play until you puke blood.
Any old console are worth getting especially if it can be easily jailbroken.

PS4 can jailbreak already?

depends on what games u want to play, if older games then worth it, cos nowadays many latest games no longer release on ps4 platform already, means only can play on ps5 and above

so its really depends on your use case, and there are many old games that have very good graphics also, and get ps4 pro instead of the normal ps4

Dh lama la bang. Ever since PS5 came out people had been jailbreaking their PS4s left and right.

You can also DIY at your home. Just watch tutorial at Youtube, lots of videos to choose from.

Sadly PS4 is considered ancient at this point so if you can endure slow ass loading times, then go ahead. Even if you mod use SSD pun x byk improvement since it is bottlenecked by other factors such as memory, cpu and OS.

I want to play GT

You mean expensive? Ps5 is so cheap for its capability.

those are launch date not lifespan...
as for PS4 after nearly 10 years but still going strong, i'd say give or take 2025 or 26 before it discontinued.

but then by now you'd rather get the ps5 than the ps4.

Regardless previous poster still wrong. All the consoles has survived around another 2 years after each new gen launch. PS4 is exception, maybe a bit longer due to Covid disruption.

who needs console this days

play phone/laptop/pc more than enough

want more buy a switch

if wanna buy, buy pro version, not the normal or slim.

i'm still hanging on my ps4 pro while waiting for ps5 pro

u wan buy ps4? i have one gathering dust
can sell cheap cheap

many selling used sets, not much of new ps4 pro anymore

Baru finished horizon zero dawn for the first time, godamn what a game !!

then just buy used, not worth to buy new anyway, it was RM1.6k when it was new, u can get a brand new ps5 now for around rm2k ledi

who got ps5 mau sell

sell ayam cheap cheap pls

Yup. Easier to JB PS4 these days compared to PS3

>ps4 in 2024 and beyond

useless already , now ps6 on the way which is in few year time, japan company are known to suck every money dry gao gao just like how atlus keep sucking money on persona series.

ps5 pro is to just make sure they get all the money for their bonus year end / new year bonus.

Still worth.

But ds4 can’t find already, online everywhere sold out.

ps5 is not expesive anymore just buy ps5 or want cheap buy xbox series s and gamepass

michelin ps4 still very good and worth it if you can find them cheap.
