Sorry but where did you get that he was never a Samurai because from what I've read he was Nobunaga Oda's Lui tenant, Yasuke wasn't even his original name it was given to him by Oda when he became a samurai under him this is in multiple historic books especially when you look into the Hannoji incident and to further this Japan themselves have created multiple media in the same way Ubisoft have to the point the is a character archtype of him in animes and games etc... of the tall black samurai like character with Guilty Gear and Bleach being examples with such characters. This isn't anything to do with being woke.

A lot of people are wondering what Switch sales will be like when the Switch 2 is out, but I'm wondering what PS5 sales would be like. The Monster Hunter effect was short lived and the PS5 will most likely sell less than 1 million this year and probably won't sell 9 million lifetime.

After four weeks on sale in Japan, Monster Hunter World on PS4 had sold 1,867,607 according to Famitsu.

In the same timeframe, Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5 has sold 763,490.

Granted, a portion of that will be due to the digital/physical split shifting towards the former since World, but that's a steep drop, especially as Japan favours physical more than some other markets. 

Also released day 1 on PC which World didn't so with that in mind PS5 actually doing pretty well. It's on track to sell around PS4 number even though it has had 2 or 3 price hikes and twice as expensive as the PS4 

I'm not so sure about that; when the PS4 was this age, in early 2018, it was selling around the 20-30k range, while PS5 looks like its settling back to a 10k baseline.

It will most likely have a longer life span than the PS4 or being in production longer. It seemed like the PS4 was phased out immediately after the PS5 was released . It was impossible to buy a new PS4 during PS5 early years

This is the same pattern that followed pretty much every premiere Playstation game in Japan, it should be expected at this point. Although unlike something like FF, the overall numbers are incredibly high, so the Japanese markets decline is very much offset. Naturally though MH will appear on Switch 2 in some shape or form to make up that difference domestically. Likely an expanded version of Wilds now that Nintendo is entering the same graphical ballpark of modern consoles. 

It's possible PS5 could last longer than PS4 did, but at present there's no way we can know either way; Sony may choose to kill off PS5 in short order to drive adoption of PS6, much like last time or like other generational transitions such as DS to 3DS.

Currently PS5 is tracking behind PS4 in Japan, and if Monster Hunter Wilds couldn't raise its baseline beyond a few weeks, I'm unsure if any game can, while price cuts are seemingly no longer a thing in the console space nowadays.

I forgot price cuts too. PS4 had it final permanent price cut after 3 years if I'm not mistaken. PS5 could still get a price cut which will boost it's baseline if not then more people will probably wait till the holiday season and the annual days of play price cuts to buy it 

I think the age of price cuts seems to be over; Switch never got one, PS5 and Xbox Series have yet to get one after 4+ years, the price of almost everything is just going up and up, not down.
