With GTA6 releasing early in the next fiscal year (assuming no delays), chances are PS5 will perform poorly this year (possible 16 million or lower) and go up significantly next year. A whole year of GTA6 and a potential pricedrop (ignoring that every time I expect a drop, we get a hike instead lol) should make 2026 a really big year for Playstation.

I don't know what Nintendo is thinking and whether their forecast is based on a pessimistic perception of demand or related to production limits. I'm sure they'll sell as many consoles as they can produce if the price doesn't change much.

Yeah, quite unlikely. The best we can hope for in that regard is bundles as the standard with every SKU including at least one digital game. 

You may be right, but it's possible if Trump calms down, which I suspect he will lol. The PS5 got a limited AstroBot bundle since March 13 at $449.99/€499.99 (standard PS5), $399.99/€449.99 (digital PS5). This is a 50$/€ (or more in EU?) discount PLUS a free game.

The reliable source that leaked the bundle (Billbil-kun) is now saying they're preparing a Black Ops 6 bundle at the same prices, challenging the general expectation that Sony would follow Microsoft's steps and increase the prices of both models.

"The good news is the pricing, which some will surely compare to the new Xbox console prices, which have been increasing since May 1st. Unlike previous Call of Duty bundles, launch promotions are planned."
