Two tidbits of information that commit the typical sins for this kind of information:
1. Production capacity is getting mixed up with shipments. We've gone through this multiple times with Switch rumors, including one that suggested that Nintendo was going to scale down Switch production in 2019 when what actually happened was that a part of the production was going to shift to a new Switch model. In any case, such rumors don't tell us much of value. Obviously, Sony is looking to increase their production capacity for PS5 consoles, we already knew as much from their official briefings.
2. David Gibson and his import data in weight have been proven to be very misleading when it came to Switch sales performance, so why should we put stock in the same guy and the same analysis when it comes to the PS5. Obviously, PS5 sales will be up year over year pretty soon and probably by significant percentages. After all, last year's supply situation went from bad to atrocious going into the holiday quarter, so we have easy year over year comparisons ahead for the PS5.
The bottom line is that this kind of news/rumors tends to generate high expectations that can't be matched.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
