Today I wanted to buy a PS5. I'm aware that it's not easy to get one at the moment, so I called Gamestop before going to the store.
The Gamestop (Switzerland) employee told me on the phone, that they stopped taking people on a waiting list (which contains over 200 names), because Sony stopped the production of PS5 consoles in Europe and Gamestop expects that the people on the waiting list have to wait more than 6 months to get a console. I assume that Sony stopped the production because of missing components.
Then I asked if it's possible to get a Xbox Series X, because that would have been my second choice. The Gamestop employee told me that the situation with the Xbox Series X is even worse, because Microsoft decided to prefer the asian market ahead of Europe and there are no Xbox Series X consoles expected to be shipped to Europe anytime soon. I don't know if "asian market" means Japan or China. I assume the latter. But on the other hand, the Xbox Series S is currently in stock and can be purchased at the Gamestop store. Since I prefer to have physical media I refused this offer.
If Sony really have stopped/interrupted the PS5 production in Europe (their strongest market), then sales should drop dramatically in the next couple of months.
