Does PS5 Pro not have the capability to upgrade internal storage? Why would they make it 2TB out of the box? That could've shaved $50-$100 off the retail price, or they could've just used that savings to include the optical drive.

PS5 SNY is becoming much more like PS3 SNY than PS4 SNY.

Simple, it's being pushed as an enthusiast high-end device, hence the inclusion of 2tb to cater to that kind of thinking.

No disc drive because honestly the world had largely become digital, and they'd prefer you spent your money digitally too

PS4 Pro was also enthusiast, and it ended up at $399, which is where the base PS4 was still at 3 years later.

PS4 Slim was also launched along with PS4 Pro and both were 1TB. Why wasn't PS4 Pro a 2TB-4TB HDD?

Are digital media gamers more enthusiast than physical media gamers?
