You're right, we don't know. Hopefully everyone will collectively agree that it's not worth the price, but I've unfortunately seen too many companies blatantly fuck with their consumers only to have record profits to think this is going to be any different.
My prediction is that they will make plenty of money, but console gaming will shrink as it prices more and more people out.
Oh, yeah, that'll happen. The tried and true method of making massive profits is to sacrifice long-term stability for short-term revenue, then abandon ship before it sinks.
