Thread 719727610

PS5 gets a silent downgrade to its hard drive. Meanwhile, the machine costs $150/€100 more than it did back when it launched 5 years ago.

This is the first time where aging technology costs more than it originally did.

Nintendo raised the price of an 8 year old console i think recently.

Thank you Mr. President.

>>719727775
Arent you on the side of the people who are trying to ruin games?

Trump forced SONY to silently downgrade the HDD?

>>719728250
Powerful enough to kill epstein and cover it up.

Is this the console industry's newest shitty trend, making consoles themselves FOMO to maximize first run sales?
>I better go out and buy the $1000 PS6 day one otherwise I'll have to pay $1500 with a bunch of features removed a year later!
Get a PC.

>>719728573
A 1500 dollar pc is total junk and cant even play multiplayer without getting hacked. Or GTA 6.

>>719727610 (OP)
are snoys the ultimate cucks?

>>719728456
No he didn't, just like Biden didn't force any company to rise their prices.

>>719728914
>A 1500 dollar pc is total junk and cant even play multiplayer without getting hacked. Or GTA 6.
>people unironically believe this

Grim.

>>719728573

I shan't be boughting at neither price.

Bait or just some after effect of raid formats.

>>719727610 (OP)
Should have bought yours already.

>>719727610 (OP)
it's ok when sony does it tho

>>719729490
>people

Funny how threads about this fail to gain traction but ones about the latest Nintendo outrage reach bump limit.

>>719732581
it's even better when you realize that Sony downgrading the drive and increasing the prices are not speculations or grifting

you already had 5 years to get a ps5

>>719732581
because you guys can't help but post in them

>>719727610 (OP)
wait they're lowering the capacity of systems people already bought? that's massively illegal unless its just an update taking that much space up.

>>719732581
its because nobody actually owns a ps5, they're just sitting in the backrooms of walmart/samsclub and rotting away.

thats also why nobody buys games for it

>>719727610 (OP)
wow, just, thank you orange man!!!

>>719727610 (OP)
And here I thought I was exaggerating when I mentioned to a friend how every single week has been just about nothing but bad news when it comes to Sony lol
>>719734451
Nah I think it's just new units going with a cheaper option despite the price staying the same.

>>719735784

Do you not remember the Gameclam incident?

>>719727668
only in usa

the price goes down in the rest of the world

Sony literally has a game division in India and sony outsells either other console there

>>719728250
>Instead of making the PS5 go up $100 in America, he made it go up $50 in America and $50 in Europe
Yeah.

>>719737739
Are they both in March?

>replaced the heatsink with a worse option after launch
>downclocked the system after launch
>downgraded the storage after launch
>raised the prices multiple times despite having already moved production out of china
>refuse to acknowledge stick drift
>system melts USBs
>have to buy a stand separately
>have to buy a disk tray separately
is sony the most evil and greedy company?

>>719737896
No that'd be nintendo.

>they're hecking lying about storage capacity
they're just rounding in decimal which is what literally everyone selling storage does

>>719737980
doesn't seem like it.

>>719737779
Not just that. They have an entire branch of entertainment and TV operating there. India is the only nation that Sony doesn't lose to other companies like Samsung, Huawei, and/Xiaomi in any industry that they share a space in, or Nintendo when it comes to gaming.

>>719727668
>B-but Nintendo!

Snoys are some of the most pathetic creatures that exist, holy shit.

Does this mean I can get more for my launch PS5 I barely played?

>>719738749
depends if you can sell it
remember, ebay takes 15% of your profits

>>719738451
Here comes the fucking vegan

You can fit the whole PS5 exclusive library on the new smaller drive 3x over. Why are you complaining?

>>719741081
>the entire library doesn't come preinstalled

If they're gonna fuck me in the ass, then they should at least give me a fuckin reacharound

>>719737896
Still Nintendo to be honest

Delusional snoy

This is what civilization collapse looks like btw. There won't be any burning cities or nukes, it's gonna be shit like this until one day we don't have indoor plumbing.

So this is why Eric/EricImp has been so mad lately

>>719727610 (OP)
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the PS6 is $999, doesn't come with a disc drive ( pretty much guaranteed already desu ), and probably no longer comes with a controller included.

>>719728250
Well, he IS the president of Europe :3

>>719737896
It's funny how many of these sound like the things Nintendo gets accused of by youtube grifters.

>>719746207
remember when "Journalists" were reporting that Switch 2s were overheating, when the fact that PS5s were starting to melt down was starting to get reported?

Why would nintendo make them do this??

>>719727610 (OP)
oh hey another reddit thread?

>>719728569
I find it funny people slept on that for half a decade and now think it'll get released. good luck.

>>719728250
NA is their main market, they wanted to drag raising prices in muttland for as long as possible so EU+UK+NZ had to take a hit for muttoids voting a senile retard in office

Maybe I'll finally jump to PC. Maybe I'll eat a bullet.

>>719746207
It's all about projecting things to others.

>>719738304
Lmao they're better off just making Rise 2 or porting World. Ain't no way the Switch 2 can run wilds above 12 fps without a colossal overhaul.

>>719738304
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>719727610 (OP)
Good thing I bought all my consoles early and have no intentions on buying another PS5 or PS6 for that matter. This is the first time I feel good about my purchase of the PS5 Pro since I got it. Can't wait for GTA 6 and KH4

>buying consoles for 600 dollars
you can buy a PC that would be better at that price

>>719751747
I guess all the PS5 has left is GTA6

>>719751395
And then Switch got all the personas lol

>>719732581
no one cares about ps

>>719745330
ohh man, Tomorrow is going to be a shitshow.

P4R not yet because ATLUS hates Nintendo.

>>719751747
Not at 1440p minimum.

Cry all you want, Sony did this to themselves.

If this shit was being done by Nintendo every single fucking urinalist and jewtuber grifter would be taking about it.

You fucking snoyggers are no more than cattle. You were born to suck sony's dick.

>>719728914
Pc will have GTA 6 day one with how the emulation is currently going
Also imagine playing so much compslop garbage that you're even concerned about cheaters
But not about everyone on console having baseline cheats where no one's mechanical skill is actually reflected in the gameplay

>>719757239
So?
Did they reduce the storage capacity after 5 years and after 3 price hikes?

>>719732581
The ones who post those anti-Nintendo threads are the ones bumping their own threads and samefagging to bump limit

>>719732581

Because most PS5s are in Best Buy/Walmart/Amazon/Target's back room and in warehouses. Very few people own a PS5. This is why Sony abandoned it.

Eric's weekly meltdown.

So not Concord tax or tariffs.

What's going on to make console prices rise globally?

>>719727610 (OP)
Just build a PC at this point.
Consoles are becoming more and more bullshit with each passing year.

I hope both Sony and Nintendo go to hell and go bankrupt because these corpos get revealed to be all prescriptions and murdered so you fucking cultist trannies can collectively commit mass suicide.

Macaco's weekly assfuck.

Is there a concerted effort by Sony to remove all of their initial marketing bullshit about the PS5's magic SSD?

>capcom praising switch 2's success

Not even snoyggers could swallow that fucking bullshit for that long.

>>719754224
Not ATLUS. Just P-Studio and Studio Zero.

>>719738304
Nintendeen debunked this today. Capcom said this before the Switch U even launched, and they're only talking about Japan where the PS5 is more expensive.

>>719727610 (OP)
Why would I buy a PS5, what games does it have?

Why would a PS5 need storage? For what games?

>>719762157
Bloodborne.

>>719727610 (OP)
It's 2025. Just get used to it. Everything is expensive. Video games are niche things for "boomers" and "uncs" (anyone over 25). They know we can afford it because they don't need to market consoles to kids anymore unlike in the 90s and 00s. Parents were unwilling to buy expensive things for their kids, but they're totally willing for themselves.

APOLOGIZE

>>719738304
The truth is finally coming out. Not only did Sony fucked over everyone with their stupid limitations, they also partnered with western wokies and infected japanese media with western ideology.

>>719761923
“That’s correct. However, we also found that the ‘PS5 barrier’ is unexpectedly large. The console costs about 80,000 yen in Japanese yen. When you factor in the cost of software and monthly subscriptions, it comes to about 100,000 yen at the time of purchase. This is not an amount that can be easily reached, especially for younger generations. This situation is not limited to Japan, but is similar overseas as well."

>This situation is not limited to Japan, but is similar overseas as well.

Lmao I thought you said Nintendo at first. Nintendeen is literally schizophrenic.

The absolute state of snoys.

>>719728456
No, but I'm guessing the tariff shit is making it impossible for them to maintain their price points so in order to not raise price by some utterly insane amount they're trying to raise price somewhat and then also downgrade the product somewhat to make it cheaper to build. I assume they're not completely retarded and know that doing this sort of thing will be viewed very negatively so there must be a reason they're doing something like this.

>>719727610 (OP)

>Only been out for 3 months and already has years worth of doom mongering
That's how you they're afraid.

>>719728250
You guys really don't understand the phrase

GLOBAL economy?

Tariffs hurt GLOBAL supply chains (The network of supplying and sourcing goods), not just prices in the US.

Ofcourse you don't even understand that because you unironically thought they paid the tariffs, not us. As if companies had some kind of magic tariff money that would just come out of nowhere and not be taken out of the amount we pay.

>>719758880
Calm down.

>>719732581
Nintendo is in this hilarious spot where they've always been scummy as fuck with shitty practices but they made a lot of people's childhoods who were too young to care about the shitty practices that happened when they were kids.

They then grow up and think Nintendo somehow changed suddenly overnight and refuse to look to the past because it would prove the "Nintendo they love" was always a fucking terrible company that made good games.

So Nintendo is this constant "hot topic" of
>WAOW NINTENDO DID THIS.. BUT THEY WERE THE GOOD GUYS WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED

You've got tards these days who defend the Wii U and think a shitty console that got jack shit support was somehow the last bastion of "good Nintendo" and I'm sure in 10 years they'll be saying the same thing about modern Nintendo as Nintendo itself keeps doing shit things.

>>719769862
Sony is like x10 worse and microsoft is like x20 worse. But hey alright manchild.

>>719727610 (OP)
It's entirely predictable that in 150 posts not a single one of you retards realized that the price in real dollars has actually gone down.
Standard Edition: $500 in 2020 dollars is $597 today, vs $550 current price
Digital Edition: $400 in 2020 dollars is $478 today, vs $450 current price
