PS5 supplies for christmas better be good. Everytime I go to an electronics store or a gaming store, I see parents and kids constantly asking for PS5, and the stores always say they don't have a single one in store. I think the entire supply sells out through their online storefront, and thus very few units actually reach the stores. They do say they have plenty PS4 in store, though.

Of course they have PS4 consoles. Very few people bother paying 300€, if not more, for a console that has no future. What Sony should do is lower the price of the PS4 to try to avoid losing some sales to the competition.

From recent analysts numbers PS5 is dominating XSX similarly or more than PS4 did to the XB1 in its first year. Only thing Sony is missing out is having a large PS5 userbase early on and as a consequence exclusive games may sell less.

Sony expects to sell 46 million in 2.5 years. If PS5 is stock constrained even after a 23M selling year then we may have all seriously underestimated the demand and PS5 could sell 140M in the same timeframe as PS4 (remember PS4 peak year was 20.5M).
