Thanks. I’m really trying not to get caught up in the rush of getting one just for the sake of it since my OG has served me well and I don’t even know what I would do with it (I have kept all my old consoles in the past). That and the fact I haven’t been able to find the disc drive anywhere for a while has made it easier not to get the pro yet.
Then it probably wouldn’t be worth it for you.

people should look about upgrading their TV’s before getting a pro

For anybody that has upgraded to the pro, has it been worth it so far? I like the idea of improving the hardware before the PS6 (which I’m sure I’ll get day one) but I’m not sure if I would even appreciate the improvements since I don’t really recall many games I play having issues on the OG.
If you don't have oled and don't game frequently do not buy. This is for the gaming purest

If you are the kind of person to ask is it worth it no it isn't. The type of people that do these sorts of things don't ask questions like is it worth it.

Every year a new phone comes out with better features than the one you have. Is it worth buying a new phone every year to get the latest version? No. Do people do it? Yeah a lot of people do.

True. At least personally I would likely never get a new one if at some point previous phone iterations didn't become unusable after a certain point to essentially force me into an upgrade.

With respect to gaming systems, I typically consider an upgrade not because my previous console performance degrades or becomes unusable but because I like having the most definitive version of the console.

I guess a better question would have been not "is it worth it?" but what features does the Pro offer that add to its value over the base console? since "is it worth it?" means different things to different people. The Pro is "worth it" to me just because I like having the most definitive version of the console (and ultimately why I'll eventually get one). At the moment it doesn't sound like I need to be in a rush to get one (unless the price is about to go up, which according to other threads may be the case):sadcam:

Looking at the recent anniversary ad and the servers being maintained on the 30th anniversary date. I think that Bloodborne Remastered drops in 2025
