This makes sense because they filled their warehouses to the brim in order to get ahead of potential tariffs and RAM price hikes. They're gambling on having enough consoles stockpiled to be able to sell through the end of 2026 without price hikes.See the little 8 next to hardware? Sony specify that these numbers are based on Sell-in. Which means they just filled their warehouses to the max and called it a day.
It would be interesting to find out how many PS5's are manufactured per year because a lot must be sat on shelves.
There are a surprisingly large number of people who want to play PC-only indie stuff but are too scared to deal with a PC. I don't know how you can remain gainfully employed in 2026 without knowing how to use a PC but apparently such people exist in large numbers.My prediction is it will great to get if you don't have a PC, dumb if you do already. It's going to be for those that still think building one yourself or even picking a pre-built out is some arcane magic.
