I'm personally a bit worried about how "connected" this new model will be. The fact that it can be directly linked to the internet, has bluetooth capabilities, and can record video / audio brings up privacy concerns. Just imagine the field day someone could have if they learned how to remotely access and control one. Not to mention corporate / advertiser spying.

I'm just wondering why they're even bringing back Aibo. It didn't generate enough profit before, what makes them think it will now? Will have functionality like an Amazon Echo or Google Home? Maybe it will be able to answer and make phone calls for you too via Bluetooth? Even so, I don't think it will generate any more profit than it did last time.

Strange move by Sony.

Today Sony reported their highest operating profits of all time. Maybe they have more money than they know what to do with and just don't give a fuck.

>Aibo
+ Doesn't cost a thing anymore after the initial costs of buying one

+ Can be left alone
+ No responsibilities at all

>Real Dog
- Will constantly cost money (food, stuff for them, vet costs depending on health/age)
- Will die someday, leaving you a fucking mess
- You need to be aware that it's a living, breathing being that relies on you being the most important thing of its life
- Responsibility, because see above

Love my real dog, and cat, but it's not just easy going all the time and you should only get one if you are willing to take care of it, not just because you want one.

And people who think an Aibo is a good replacement are just silly anyway.

Well I for one would like well articulated 1/12 scale of all versions of Aibo. Like the older designs a lot to be honest.

Read on an Aibo forum that Sony said they won't be releasing it outside of Japan. Was finally hoping I would finally be able to get one, couldn't afford them when they first came out

Love my real anon, and anonette, but it's not just easy going all the time and you should only get one if you are willing to take care of it ( feed, bathe, supply with cocks to suck, anime pillows, and hot pockets) not because you want one.

And people who thing Anonibo is a good replacement are just silly anyway

I remember watching a video about the old AIBOs and how Sony kept them around for so long despite never generating significant profit just because people liked them. Then Sony fell into some hard times and some new appointed hot shots decided to can the project and they're support service. This lead to people worrying about their AIBOs as parts were becoming hard to find and third party repairs were basically non existent.

I wonder if they're bringing back the support for the old lines.

When you feed a troll, you encourage him to continue shitposting.

When you ignore a troll, you get a warm fuzzy feeling in your tummy because you know the troll is getting upset at his lack of replies.

It's more like a wrenching feeling of longing, because even though you know it's a troll, the compulsion to reply is powerful. You know you're taking the high road, and you know the troll is hurt too, but you still feel a pang somewhere deep in your heart. A sense of incompleteness.
