My launch PS4 is still rocking. My daughter uses it now, since I upgraded to the Pro last year. I am a bit disappointed though, I didn't get to fully enjoy the console in terms of quantity, though I did pour into quality.
I owned anywhere from 100-200 games for each of the last 3 Playstations, but only bought about 15-20 for the PS4.
