Also the impact of Animal Crossing comes to mind. My flatmate bought a Switch at it's release and only like 2 games since 2020 lol.

Plenty of gamers are extremely casual and don't really invest much in the space. They could comfortably go a generation without investing in gaming and their participation is just tied to trends, curiosity, boredom etc. Something as hyped as GTA could get people buying a PS5 just so they can be part of the conversation. All just to say I don't think we should underestimate it's potential impact. (Nor Sonys willingness to take a loss that on hardware that holiday to get people into their ecosystem)
