You wouldn't think it's really a niche market - most TVs made in the past several years are 4k, prices have become quite cheap, if you're buying a new mid or high end TV today chances are it's a 4k panel.
It's just a cost factor more than anything, if you spend $1200+ on video cards you can pull it off on PCs today with most major titles, but that price alone is several times what top of the line consoles run. That price is rapidly dropping, but just isn't there yet. As such, bragging about 8k support on a console that's probably not going to cost that much more seems... unrealistic to say the least.

- rocky1138 7y agoThis is one area that I wish the community was given more control. I don't know of a solution but it would be great if companies of all kinds would just say "We don't think this feature has a worthwhile financial return but if you (the players) want to find a way to make it work, here are the tools to do that." Then, interested parties, like GP, could take up the mantle.
