I only buy new systems once they have an established library AND enough games to feel a purchase is warranted. So I generally wind up buying them somewhere from midway through the system's life to the tail-end of it, when the system is cheaper and so are a lot of the prior releases on it. Taken until now for me to even consider a PS4, and that's been out for four years already now.
If you ask me, there's no real point in buying a system at or around release, when all you have are launch titles and a "promise" of more games of interest down the line. But, I suppose it's those impatient masses that prove interest in the system to the owner and potential developers, so there's some value in it. Point being, I don't want to be one of those people.
