Playstation 5: Thread 02

[teddymeow]

Ps5 production numbers are rumoured to be at 11 million.
From launch to March 2014 the ps4 sold ~6 million, so hopefully 11 million should be enough for launch.

Tis bollox, apparently

HOORAY!!

Even if it was true, 11m units is still double the PS4 launch, which is a seriously impressive feat.

[wakka]

Yeah, it feels like if those numbers are accurate, there should be plenty to go around. Which is nice!

If the number of units ready for launch are going to be high then I really need to think fast about what I'm going to buy...

Oh stop.

You're going to buy both new consoles, the 4k Switch and new PC stuff. You know you are.

Any minute now...

[Junko]

Of course 11million isn’t going to be enough to see everyone through till March . There will be the usual initial mad scramble and shortages for Christmas

[fishbowlhead]

A french retailer is apparently breaking embargo to take pre orders before the show tonight, so I guess when that happens the prices will be confirmed.

I've been trying to wrangle with the missus to get away with ordering the PS5 and an RTX3080 which is pushing it massively. Thankfully I'm 110% not going to pick up a Series S/X or Switch Pro so I can leverage it as I'm only getting half of them...

[hudson]

What time is the PS5 fluffing today?

Ah cheers. Hope they finally show the console and Jumping Flash 3 PSVR.

[Neon Ignition]

Confirmed! The best ever launch game is coming to Playstation!
