People are now choosing the digital version because of the huge price difference. The pro and disc versions would sell more if they increase the price of the digital version |
This is also true. Playstation has been pretty stable the last 3 generations, this is nothing new or dire. PS3 sold 10m, PS4 9m but killed early, PS5 will sell 8.5m but is killed early by economic circumstances.
If 3rd party games continue to be prioritised and preferred on PlayStation over Switch, the PS6 dual systems should comfortably repeat PS5s numbers and have a less turbulent lifespan.
