2015 Macbook or Macbook pro 13?

Hey I'm going to buy a new laptop this year after a lg ultrabook failed me… The thing is I can't choose which one to buy. I'm a student who does light gaming (like minecraft) and some app developing, light video/photo editing, plus the usual documents and presentataion things. I won't be carrying it around that often, maybe just to and from school a few times a week. I thought the refreshed 2015 macbook pro is the best choice for me, since it has way better performance and more ports than the new macbook, but i'm worried that I'll regret buying it when the new macbook pro comes out with all the new features and a new design like the macbook, (like to new kayboard, the speakers, etc.) and I love getting new technology(and maybe boasting to my friends). But also I like my computer performing really fast, and I'm hearing that the macbook is really slow with the core M. So simply, its performance vs design, which do you think i shoud get?

+ do you think i'll be comfortable with a macbook pro on my lap in bed? I liked that about my lg ultrabook.

Wait for the new releases if you can. The current macbook is like an iPad with a keyboard running OS X. But it IS lightweight. If you need it NOW, I'd go for the Pro.
