I was wrong to believe the fallacy of "the current generation will not hold on to the next generation". I've talked to a lot of people now. It may make sense for some games, but not AAA games, big-budget production system sales types.
Give up old hardware. I want to see what new things can do.

It looked good on paper, but not in the real world.
