Sony Plans Limited PlayStation 5 Output in First Year

First day
Idc if I gotta rob steal or kill.

Yea honestly i have no reason to get a ps5 at launch outside of them canceling the ps4 version of last of us. But i dont think they could handle the backlash of that so im not worried.

By the time i get a ps5 it will probably be well into year 2 and i can stock up on some games at that time. The one good thing about this lockdown shyt is i can make a serious dent in my backlog.

Day one

Spoiler

If I can get my hands on one

Normally I’m launch day, but this one is looking shaky for me with launch titles. Even if I wanted Godfall it’s coming to PC too

 

[Teal.]

About to buy two just so I can sell it for 1g each when it runs out

 

[MidniteJay]

I was fast for PS4 preorders. Looks like I'm gonna have to OD for the PS5.

Yeah pre orders are gonna run out at a alarming rate

 

[Wildin]

But but but Nintendo plans shortages! They do this shyt to inflate numbers!

 

[Action Mike]

copping immediately

 

[Batsute]

Unless Bloodborne 2 or that Norse game is a launch, I’ll wait it out.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Hold off until about year 2 and there should be a price drop and the hardware should be better with less issues as day 1s

You're not getting a price drop year 2 especially if they going to take a loss out the gate per console, which both companies are expected to do. Rona is going to further reck the economy so that will also push both companies to launch at a price point that is a loss unless they push into 2021.

I'm pre-ordering as soon as it goes up but as long as I can play Cyberpunk on the Pro I'm good with waiting.

 

[Auger]

There won't be much price drops next generations (or they will be few and far between)

I don't think the specialized components used in the next set of consoles will be subject to economies of scale and might not get cheaper over a period of time.

Custom NVMe drives, 16 GBs of memory? and their respective low yield rates?

 

[Return of the Jedi]

Buying consoles at launch is always a damn letdown. I'm good to wait.
