I'd put it around 75 to 105 million with anything below 60 million meaning a disaster far beyond what any current planning to the current situation can steer away from.
2029 is way too far out to predict supplier output for components. They're not going to hold their breath for that long. Either AI is a bubble or the new norm. If it's the new norm, then the suppliers will inflate their production levels to make their products more palatable to the consumer marketplace. If it's a bubble, then suppliers will wait until it pops and then components will drop in price without any changes in manufacturing rates on their end.
Also keep in mind, if you're reacting to overdramatic YouTubers and social media sorts, the vast majority of the gaming customer base doesn't isn't like that. The reason why the overdramatic, pessimistic, and cynical sorts catch the ear of people on social media is because neurotic viewers are an easily hooked and reliable audience. Fanbases are loaded with these sorts of neurotic people, and they congregate in these virtual spaces. And I don't mean that as an insult, but rather as an explanation, every single person has some degree of neuroses (except maybe Data from Star Trek), but people in some contexts let it steer them toward unrealistic conclusions. |
Yea,this is not gonne age well. Has nothing to do with youtubers, 1000 to even 1200dollars is not something most families can afford,thats it! Nothing else+ quit a few gamers will stop supporting sony, combine that wit ever increasing game prices/sub prices and NOOO WAAAY ps6 is going to reach 100mill,not even close. |
Cool. But my post argues that if (it becomes clear) the market isn’t in a bubble, suppliers will adapt to the new norm with palatable pricing products for the consumer. I also didn’t deny PS6 could sell below 60 million, only that it would result from an avoidable disaster.
Youtubers (along with other social media types) are merely examples of outputs of catastrophic news intended to hook the attention neurotic (or threat sensitive) game fans rather than making any kind of sound analysis.
Hopefully this clears things up. But if you think the above leads to the conclusion of something like "YouTubers [misrepresent the idea that] 1000 to even 1200dollars is something most families can afford", well that's quite far from my own opinion, but you're entitled to follow my reasoning to that end or any other you choose! :D
