Oh, yes. I love stocking up too.
I've been downloading all of my purchased/PS Plus games onto an external hard drive and I am staggered by the sheer number of quality games for the system. And there's plenty more I haven't picked up yet.

what is the speculation about your PS4 digital library/profile transferring over to the PS5? With the Digital Only edition, I have to imagine this will be the case, no?

Details are hazy at best. It will backwards compatible, both digital and by disc. The exact rollout of what that looks like and what/when games will be available remains to be seen. They did say most of the TOP 100 PS4 games will playable on the PS5 at launch. So, there's that.

Watched some of the trailers in 4k. Ratchet and Clank, Deathloop, Resident Evil VII, and Horizon look truly next gen.

I’m still finishing up the first one, but this sounds more like a side thing rather than a sequel. A Sony exec called it an “expansion”.

If it is a Uncharted: Lost Legacy or Infamous: First Light sort of thing, that will still be an excellent launch title. Especially, if it can serve as a stop gap before Spider-Man 2 in a two years or so.

Confirmed to a be a shorter, Uncharted: Lost Legacy-style, game.

It looks like we'll need a horizontal stand (likely sold separately) or the console will sit crooked.
I highly doubt they will ship it without a horizontal stand included. I give them props for trying something different and not just doing a gray/black box again.
You can see the horizontal stand in this photo. It might me the same at the vertical stand. But it might not.

They clarified their comment:
Spider-Man Miles Morales is *not* an expansion or enhancement or remaster, despite a Sony executive's comments this morning, a source tells Bloomberg News. Nor is it Spider-Man 2. It is a brand-new, standalone game similar in scope to Uncharted Lost Legacy.

Looks like we have the option of a really fat console or a tall console this generation.
The air flow looks to be a main design consideration here, which is good to see. My PS4 Pro is probably going to wake the neighbors when playing the Last of Us Part Two.

I bet it is either the same stand or ships with both.

This can be interpreted a few ways I guess but time to start saving.

Still holding strong that the All Digital Console will be $399 and the standard console will be $499.

Same. I'm not sure how many 4k Blu Rays I will actually buy, but it will be nice to have as a feature.
