PlayStation |OT| Playing Astro Bot on the Horizon Until Dawn

Playstation announced the price increases in Brazil as well and... they are nowhere near close what I expected.

Actually, the PS5 Pro price was raised less than either the PS5 or PS5 D, it raised by R$500 while both versions of the Slim raised by R$600 each.

The PS5 Pro just doesn't sell around here, the official price was R$7000 like it was $700 in the US, now it's R$7500 while it is $900 in the US.

PS5 Pro since last holidays was constantly on sale and I saw it being R$ 4800 during Black Friday and several times being R$ 5300 this year, nowhere near the official price already, and it still doesn't sell. I can see it being sold at R$ 5000 this BF despite the massive price increase in the whole world. That's the price the regular PS5 released here in 2020.

A 2TB SSD compatible with the PS5 costs around R$ 2500+ around here now, that's more than half the price of the Pro I saw last BF.

I really don't want one, and I don't need one either, but I need more space, it would be stupid to buy a SSD nowdays. What the actual fuck, the PS5 Pro is looking like a "decent" deal.

I'm considering a 4TB external HDD just to store the games but those are already quite expensive as well. And I just discovered a Toshiba HDD I have on the PC actually doesn't work with it. It does work, but it won't transfer games to it properly, it slows to nearly stillness after around 12GB is transfered. My Seagate HDD for the PS4 does work on it tho.

I guess Brazil was already so fucked up that they really can't follow up the Pro hike as they are doing everywhere else.
