A wise decision given the Ps4 will still be the main focus for a while longer even after the release of PS5 according to Toshihiro Nagoshi too.

Read on Sega's Yakuza Producer Toshihiro Nagoshi's comments on Ps5, translated by Gematsu:

  • Even after PlayStation 5 is released, I think PlayStation 4 is going to be the main focus for a while longer.
  • The processing power of PlayStation 5 is incredible, so when we try to think of new gameplay that will utilize its full potential, I’m not really sure which aspects of existing mechanics we should translate.
  • First there was a time when graphics improved, then there was network features, and now I guess you can say its a return to the “programmable” era? I think artificial intelligence and machine learning will continue to evolve.
  • If you would pour its power into graphics it’ll be the best that we’ve yet to see, and I think everyone is thinking about in what way we should use that power. I as well. There’s artificial intelligence and many other things I want to think about.

nah, I'm just waiting for PS5 pro.
 
I'll be waiting for a few months, maybe a year as I did with the PS4. I really want to see what the PS5 looks like. Hopefully it's not just a small design difference from the PS4

  • Haha
Reactions: Ash
Some decent technical specs behind it, alongside a few more details released since things started. Looking like it could be decent. Backcompat was confirmed which was vital for me.
 
I can't remember the last time I even changed a disc on my PlayStation 4. I've literally only been playing digital games. I wouldn't even know if there was a problem with the disc thing lol
 
I know :(. I also blame the lack of interesting games I have right now. If I actually liked them, I would be changing discs a lot more but I've only got Fortnite and the Crew 2 to entertain right me until some new games come out.
