If the regular PS5 Pro is $699 USD, I wonder how much this is going to cost...

$999 USD? $1499 USD? $1999 USD?...

At those prices, you'd be better off getting a Gaming Desktop!!

I know that this is for Playstation's 30th anniversary, but I'm a bit disappointed that they chose to don PS1 themed stuff again. The PS4 had some ten years ago, so I would have liked to see PS2 theming. The controller could be black with the multi-colored faced buttons instead of the monochrome, and the touch pad could be a dark grey since it's basically the select button. The PS button could be that silver color they used to print 'Sony' on the controllers, or possibly blue like the PS2 logo when a game booted.

You know what, if this had been a standard PS5, I might very well have brought it.

It’ll most likely be the same price or 50-80 dollars extra.

The price for the anniversary non pro digital edition is supposedly going to be the same as the original digital version.

To be fair the 2 and 3 were black, Sony already sells Dual Sense,Headsets, & console covers also in black.

Can only hope it doesn't sell. SIE are out of hand this generation. They can rot.

There is a base-model 'non pro' version of this 30th anniversary console, although sans disk drive unfortunately...unless that's what you meant!
