I wonder if the consoles are still being sold at a loss given the MASSIVE deflation in semiconductors recently. WE went from a shortage to a glut very quickly.

Sony announced in August 2021 that the PS5 no longer sold at a loss, and in the twenty months since that announcement there have been a number of revisions  with the main cost saving points being a die shrink and a couple of heatsink changes so that the heatsink is now about a third the size of the original with a fair  amount of copper being replaced by aluminium, so it most certainly now sold at a profit , about the semi conductor glut any movement I assume would be predicated on their existing contracts the nm range of that extra  supply and how much extra available capacity there is to utilise that supply increase. on the Xbox side unfortunately I haven't heard any info on the Series X/S so I can't help you there.



Research shows Video games  help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot
