It's because SNY dropped PS4 to $299 after 3 years, while introducing PS4 Pro at $399 (optical drive included). Now we have PS5 at $499 after 4 years, and PS5 Pro being introduced at $699 ($799 with the optical drive add on). Is PS5 Pro that much more of an upgrade over PS5 vs what PS4 Pro was over PS4? The biggest reason is inflation, but if SNY's approach and strategy was similar to PS4, there's little reason why PS5 couldn't be dropped to $399 and have Pro at $599. The fact SNY decided not to go with 1TB storage and let the user upgrade to 2TB, knocking $50-$100 off the price, or using that to offset the cost of including the optical drive, shows SNY has changed their strategy and doesn't care much about growing unit sales. As long as they keep making large enough profits they don't care what PS product you're gaming on. They're heading towards becoming arrogant PS3 SNY again. |
That and these generic failures. They won't use the IP we want. They won't listen and they now think themselves as apple but what they can't see is they're making themselves look cheaper rather than premium. Even the PS5 design looks cheap.
