Only thing that fell off a cliff is the average IQ of anyone that believes that nonsense.

NS wins again.
Stocks low for PS5 and very low for XS.
Sony is sending a lot more PS5s to North America than to EU.

I don't think we will see Switch Pro exclusives, that didn't work out so well with the new 3DS anyway. We will see tho, i don't think we will get a big boost from the new model. Just something that makes games like Botw run smoother even in Korok forest, i would be sold. The power difference will also show us when we can expect the next console. If the leap is actually bigger than i anticipate, i don't see them dropping a Switch 2 before 2024.

It seems that week ending January 23 will see a Big Increase in PS5 sales since countries including Australia, lot of countries in Europe and even US received some stock.

If the rumours about Sony not having problems with production ends being true, we will start to see stock more often.

At this point, with the high price ($299 slim/399 pro) and extremely low production, PS4 is falling and could end between 120-125 millions units LT.

At the scale the graph is now, they would be hard to see

I still think that the Pro turns out to be a Dock with supplemental computing that improves both docked and undocked supported games for both the Switch and Lite;
Another thing to buy within the ecosystem with-out exclusive titles from 1st/2nd parties.

I also think this has a fair chance. I’d buy an improved Dock.

Agreed. In fact, the Switch live now, more than ever, with the dicotomy of beeing a weak home console and a very powerfull handheld. So, an improve version of the Switch is only needed in the home console version, not in the handheld. Besides, an improved dock will be far cheaper than an improved Switch
