| BraLoD said: If the PS5 have had no supply issues it would be far ahead of the PS4, so yeah, it's going to keep gaining ground until it eclipses it, thought the PS4 was a beast too, so it's hard to gain that much that fast. |
I think the assumption that PS5 would be way ahead of PS4 without supply issues is not necessarily true. We really don't know how much demand was pent up due to the shortages, and we really don't know whether the cause of the shortages (COVID) influenced increased gaming activity which lead to more demand.
Basically, I wouldn't use definitives like that. PS5 will likely eclipse PS4, but whether it stays there is a different story. I wouldn't take it for granted. Sony still needs to maintain a consistent output. Which hopefully 2024 is better for them in that regard.
