So not only am I going to drop well over $500 (facetious number, I know, just bear with me for the sake of argument) for a system, it won't actually come with any controllers?
MAN, the future of gaming is looking awesome. 
On Topic: Now, I'm no tech-head by any means, but wouldn't 8 to 16 gigs of RAM make the system freaking expensive in the long run? And if so...is Sony just begging to be bankrupt before we reach 2015?
EDIT: Just did a bit of research...16 gigs of RAM should cost around $70 or more, while the graphics card that they're touting (AMD A10 APU) is around $130. Not to mention that a replacement blu-ray laser (which, according to the report, is being used again) is around $35-40.
That's almost $250, and that isn't factoring in casing and other stuffs on the inside of this behemoth. I sense another "$599 U.S. DOLLARS" in our future.
By reading this information I have realized something, Wii u will easlily be the best next gen console. The amount of ram is unrealistic.
I was just about to say this. Halve the ram and that's more likely what will be available on release day.
I was looking up the specs of the a10 and it has 4 cores with 700 flops of processing power. Now compare that to the Wii U's 3 core 570 gflops. The important thing here is that it wont be that much more powerful than the Wii U. Hopefully this avoids a Wii scenario.
that tri core rumor was never confirmed and also debunked. The wii u is supposed to have a four core cpu, with the gpu handling many of tasks that the cpu would normally handle.
If its going to be powerful and be a graphics power house people will shell out 500 for it like they did for ps3. I would not be suprised if the next xbox and ps3 are min 450. Remember as time goes on things get more expensive not cheaper look at the automobile industry prices go up every year.
think again, 700$ atleast for ps4 , xbox is heading in the wii direction next gen with an even heavier focus on multimedia.
Thats because their is no such thing as 'gaming news' havent you been following doritosgate? No 'game journalist' that hasnt been fired for letting the cat out of the bag about being on the payroll of the company you write reviews for has the competence to dig up real information, they only regurgitate what publishers tell them to say.
Perhaps if you googled miles sound, part of rad game tools, who has tools used to make practically every game on the market today instead of forming an argument from ignorance, youd understand how they support each other.
By the way, these guys are what were used to get wii u sdk information REAL wii u sdk inormation, they break sdk change news before anyone else everytime.

Added secret platform (contact us for details).
Before this the last 'secret platform' was wii u.
And i got news for you dude, unless they are leaving something out, like a second standalone gpu these are NOT insane specs, or anywhere CLOSE to what delirious sony fans are convinced they are getting.
Not just insane but stupid if is is true. If its cheap enough i might just get it as i missed out with sony on the ps2 and ps3
, but sony would be absolutely dumb to but this much ram in their console. The high end pc's dont even use more than about 3 or 4 gigs.
