have fun waiting until 2023

https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/ps5-shortages-into-2022/

Sony expects to struggle to meet the demands for PS5 into 2022, according to a new report from Bloomberg. This news comes by way of Sony chief financial officer Hiroki Totoki, who warned investors that PS5 shortages will likely continue for the foreseeable future.
Totoki said I dont think demand is calming down this year and even if we secure a lot more devices and produce many more units of the PS5 next year, our supply wouldnt be able to catch up with demand, Totoki said, according to Bloomberg.

I def don't care about any next gen games and gaming is in need of being revitalized as far as I'm concerned so I am fine waiting. I have a backlog of steam games, Switch seems to be fine at indexing classics and consolidating to a handheld. Even a new Ace Attorney game coming out. RE8 plays fine on PS4. Fine snoozing for now.

It sucks because the newer games like FF7Re are going to be specifically made for the PS5 and not the PS4.

It just kind of funny people clamoring over to get a PS5 at launch date when it barely had any games.

There still arent any games that make PS5 a must buy, same for the Xbox Series X.

In 2022 the next gen exclusives will start coming out but its more likely 2023 is the year that next gen will really be a thing.

So were scalpers just the scapegoat then or what? Did sony really not make enough?

My wife wanted to play Cyberpunk (which is an entirely different disappointment) and she had a day one PS4. There was no way itd be able to play it.

Scalpers were just the symptom of the problem, the main reason for the shortages is because apparently the "chips" use to make these consoles are on shortages.

I want to get one before Rachet & Clank releases. I started tracking stock for them at the end of April. I almost got one last week. I got as far as adding it to cart, but it ended up selling out. If my luck with the 3080 is any indication, I'll have a PS5 before long.

It took several attempts, but I got mine over a month ago. Still way easier than the days of having to be at a physical store at the right place and time, just get used to hitting "add to cart" countless times.

same here. new spiderman and then a remake is like it so far. haven't played spiderman on ps4 so not interested in the new one yet. between work and school it's taking me a long time to get through my backlog and been replaying a bunch of games.

was thinking about trying to get one for black friday if they do a bundle. still hoping for a 2tb model...maybe by time i get one. dunno if they even got SSDs working so you can upgrade storage yet on ps5.

That's fine. Never buying consoles at launch since the PS3 for me.

They are already sold out when I check the websites the day of or after a restock so I'm almost hopeless

following the twitter accounts that post the restocks as they happen helps bc they seem to sell out in like 30 min. it took a few attempts but this helped me and a friend each get one a month or so ago

Yeah, I followed Wario64 and activated notifications. And even if "add to cart" faded out, that doesn't necessarily mean it's out of stock. The site's infrastructure is kind of wonky with that many people trying.

Yeah, you have to follow a stock tracker on Twitter or discord. Depending on how many go up for sale, they sell out in a few minutes. There's no chance you can check a day later and still get one.
