This makes no sense. Why would a company want their product to be sold out? The goal is to balance supply and demand. So they SHOULDN’T sell out. It’s not a limited edition product or anything. This post is sensationalized as fuck.
I think they’re implying a comparison to the PS4. It was notoriously difficult to get a PS4 for months after it’s release because it was constantly sold out
He’s saying that it’s a good thing it hasn’t sold out yet, allowing it to have plenty of supply for Christmas season. It’s a good thing due to the PS5 previously being sold out everywhere last Christmas.
While I think it’s still too high a price point for me personally, it’s at least a logical increase in price because supply and demand has caused it to be increased.
![[Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/7d87d164-1056-4477-a6a0-eaabf67ac7fb.png){kind=link}

Um, 5. That was the ps5.
Thank you, forgot the PS5 has been out for a while lol
I think that the perfect storm of high demand and low supply ha. I’m sure Sony didn’t want that outcome.
