So, WHEN are you going to buy a 9th Gen console?

i usually buy all console so at least one was at launch (ps2,x360,ps4), but for this gen i only need a ps5.
so if ps5 has at least one mildly interesting game, i', probably gonna buy at launch (it's always a gamer pleasure buying a console at day one even if launch line ups are usually mediocre)
 
If there's some cool shit to pre order for the PS5 I'm in, but if not, I'm waiting for the first price drop IF there's something.
 
I'll the buy when the console has 5 games that I really wanna play on it.
Usually that coincides with a cheaper and sleeker slim revision appearing.
 
When next-gen Naughty Dog comes to PS5. Did the same for PS4. Bought PS4 just a few months before Uncharted 4 came out.
 
When and if there is an exclusive coming to the PS5 that I want and that is not coming to PC. Even if it is coming to PC if it is a From Software exclusive I will most likely buy a PS5 for 1 game.
 
Couple of years at most. Still have a nice collection of games that could last me until the announcement of something like the PS5 Slim.
 
Mid gen, when the slim/pro versions come out with improvements and issues solved.

XSX in not enough ? :D kidding aside, sure after 2-3 years developers will take full advantage of the new hardware, and the Mid Gen upgrade will show even more muscles.

I'll buy XSX on Day One, and PS5 a couple of months later.
 
PS5 as soon as I can get my hands on one - hopefully release date.

Xbox as soon as they release at least one or two console exclusives I really want to play (if that actually happens).
 
I plan on getting just one on launch day, and from there it honestly depends.

If Microsoft convinces me to upgrade to the Series X... I'll get a PS5 down the line.

If Microsoft can't convince me to upgrade to the Series X, I'll get a PS5 on day one. No idea if I'd eventually upgrade my Xbox in that case. It would depend on whether XCloud gave me a way to play the Xbox exclusives I care about.
 
As soon as I see one on a shelf in a store I'll grab em. Both PS5 and Series X. Still contemplating trading in the Switch for the newer better battery Switch.
