So it is very unlikely Sony will double the trouble by managing two supply chains instead of a single one. Not everyone has the luxury to throw money around on hardware like some other company... |
Except Sony is managing two supply chains, one for PS5 and one for PS4.
Microsoft ended its Xbox One supply chain as it began the two for the Xbox Series consoles.
I grant you on the engineering front, but not on the supply chain front.
