GameIndustry polled analyst firms on their price predictions for the next generation of consoles after revealing that Valve's Steam Machine costs more than $1,000.Answers:
• Aldora's Joost van Drunen: "$1,000 is the minimum as electronics makers enter the post-consumer phase."
• Circana's Matt Piscatella: "It's possible, very likely, that the price will be over $1,000 because the parts market is in chaos right now."
• Piers Harding-Rolls of Ampere Analytics: “I wouldn't be so sure it would be more than $1,000.Sony's scale in the electronics market is greater than Valve's, and it has agreements and an established supply chain."
• Newzoo's Manu Rossier: "Sony is highly likely to keep the price of the next generation of consoles below $999 for psychological and marketing reasons."
What do you think – will the price of PS6 exceed $1,000 or not?
