I would say that if they had done a pricecut the pandemic would have boosted the sales of PS4 even on the verge of death. So yes the decision to let PS4 and X1 die was from their manufacturers, not fault of pandemic. The shortages of PS5 and Series can be partially faulted to pandemic thought. |
Sony must've been making a lot of money on each PS4 sold at $300 by 2020, so they chose profits over sales numbers in the short term, then once PS5 was out the new system became their priority.
