Video: unboxing a PS4 Debug console (DUH-T1000AA)
Hardware German website computerbild.de got their hands on a Debug PS4. Codenamed the DUH-T1000AA, the device looks like a regular PS4, and it goes without saying that I’m extremely jealous (being in Japan, the chances for me to get one of those in the foreseeable future are slim, especially since Amazon US don’t seem to be getting any new stock yet) .
The video doesn’t actually show much, besides the accessories and the actual device. In particular, they do not turn turn the console on or even plug it to a TV, so we don’t get to see the interface, or how exactly the debug unit is different from a standard PS4, except for a slightly mysterious “TEST” port at the rear of the console (is it really a port?).
If the PS4 is anything like the Vita (and I bet it is), a debug unit is probably not super useful in itself, as those need to be reactivated by their rightful “owner” regularly, otherwise they become unable to run anything. Nevertheless, it would be awesome to see it actually running something!
The mysterious “TEST” port (?)
What’s your gaming gear going to look like in 2014? Are you getting a PS4?

PS4 + import Vita 2k + Import Vita TV. I’m just planning on having no life or extra money until late January 2014.
I’m going with the no money till january 25th 2014 wil be eating bread with a glass of water 🙂
hahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahah xD
No im not getting one. Im getting a brand new rig with Intel upcoming Broadwell and Nvidia’s 8xx featuring new GPU architecture.
Meanwhile il be waiting for CFW PS Vita. Maybe the new slim model or the Vita TV will help people crack it.
What if kingdom hearts 3 comes out with the console release would you or would you not buy it..
well hope they make a good morpg for the ps4 or xbox one was hopping for warcraft on the ps3 but atleast it had free realms…
Well good for you, I on the otherhand sold my GTX670 computer to buy an ultrabook instead.
Why a ultrabook?
Small, light, convenient. Capable of some pretty light gaming.
Good luck waiting up to 18 months for waiting for next-gen Intel CPUs and nVidia cards.
As a PC gamer, I am not into the whole tick-tock release cycle.
Regards AMD
AMD don’t be suck a d***. I have an Alienware with AMD card and to be honest your drivers and support suck. Everything related to AMD made my computer a piece of ***. I yearn for an Nvidia card!
The Nvidifags are at it again…
NVIDIA OR GO HOME!
WE WANT THE TRUTH!
THE TRUTH IS NVIDIA!
ANYTHING ELSE MEANS YOU SHOULD GET THE F*CK OUT. AND GO HOME.
NVIDIA
Ur lame if u think nvidia is best thats a fad I have both amd and nvidia and I prefer amd though both are good in whatever they do and Im not taking sides
nividia made an android thats cool…
wel ur board probly dosent run amd to good. i think with most motherboard with built in gpu its best to use the type or graphic card that built in…
@Shapeshifter. I like nVidia better because AMD takes so long to optimize the games for their drivers.
Although I wouldn’t consider myself an Nvidia fanboy, the GTX 780 wipes the floor with even AMDs newest cards.
“What’s your gaming gear going to look like in 2014? Are you getting a PS4?”
I’ve already got my PS4 half paid for at a local game store, I’m committed at this point.
I just recently bought a Wii U (Zelda bundle! I hope this thing doesn’t end up just gathering dust in a couple months…)
My friends seem to be all about the Xbox One. I might pick one up, but not at launch. I don’t want Kinect at all, so I might get one sooner if they give us one without that accessory.
I already have a Vita (which I enjoy quite a bit) and a 3DS XL. (which I barely play, but Pokemon just came out…)
pokemon alright iam at the begining trying fo figure out what pokemon the cute pokemon but i think i needed the mega stone but my team full and a need a surfing pokemon to skip past the first battle…. was thinking about getting the wii u jus fo da zelda…
now people have to have patience
In Brazil PS4 was confirmed to cost R$3999,99. In us dollars should be $1849,80.
I think i will pass ps4 until price run low.
Bro, you live in Brazil, right?
Just steal one, or kidnap someone’s daughter for ransom money and trade for a PS4. It’s easy.
hit up the market probably u find one there…
Here in brazil, PS4 = R$4000,00 ~= $2000 (***?), maybe i will need to sel my house or my car to have it…. no more words… =(
Atleast you can keep your pet.
just steal or kidnap for ransom money
it’s not hard. we do it all the time in brazil..
just don’t get caught and you are okay..
Hmmmm what if you order it from the United states pr ebay via UPS even with the extra charges it won’t get up till 2000$
I could be wrong but that “test” port looks like a Kensington security slot.

Just going with a wireless keyboard, Badass PC, Wireless Controller, all synced to the main TV.
Not bad 😉

i wish my *** was bad ***… i wanted to get like a dual quad core xenon system with a mini itx with ps3 bioooozs but thinking what graphics card to get…
hey WOLOLO.
Fisrt of all, amazing website, really like here, never use any exploit or hack on my VITA, but your news are Fck… Great!!! Thank you for for keeping all of this

I’m not getting a
I’m not getting a ps4 just a brandnew PC set up
so think the us army going make ps4 super computer it be boss…
I will be getting my PS4 between June & July 2014, that’s when I have finished my official exams & when my new house has been finished. 😛
The fact that the debug starts with DUH makes me paranoid if it is legit or not. 😛
Lol, I kept thinking the same as I wrote the article! “did I misread?”
That hole looks like an anti theft lock
Kensington lock, and yes it looks like one.
so then this is a ps4 that dev use to test there games for a ps4
hopefully ps4 first gen, watch dogs, gta v and nfs (if there’s another one to be released next year) and I’m sorted. if there is dc’s items and we can import it via pc.
I’ll be doing that XD!
The ps4 devkits we use are just silver boxes, the pro is a black/silver one with a big PS logo in the middle.
Never seen this before, seems to be something they use for events and showfloors I could imagine.
wait a minute, this was posted 2013? how did I end up here lol
