PS4 vs Gameboy is coming right down to the wire. Will be very close either way.

The pandemic pretty much killed it. After stock went out, no more PS4s were getting manufactured. Of course priority shifted to the new consoles. Hence the stalled hardware. Shame really. I thought for sure it would have gotten to at least 125m. |
I wouldn't say the pandemic killed it. It over 6 years old already when covid started in earnest, so it was already slowing down; as others have already said, once it was replaced Sony would rather people buy a PS5 than a PS4 so they opted not to take extraordinary measure to prolong the latter's life and just let it ride out what momentum it had left.
