Would be a great way to deflate any hype surrounding the PS4 Fortnite bundle :P

Some might avoid playing Fortnite on ps4 as a result of this though.

Maybes it not about the sales? Maybe its about granting what the players wants?

Gonna take a wild guess and say you're not going to consider including Windows 10 and Mobile in this argument at any point yeah?

Sure, they have. But is it the best decision for the gamers - or the best for Sony? Well, loss of reputation is also bad for Sony. Sony has invested heavily over years to build a great brand image for Playstation. Stuff like this is damaging that.

Conveniently ignoring that the PS4 is also 5x older than the Switch.
