        Funny because I don't know a single person with a ps5
        All the people I know have a pc or a switch
        I suppose it's because the PS5 is more popular with kids while adults have pc's and switches

    It's not made the strongest case for upgrading has it? When plenty of games are still playable on PS4 like Elden Ring and Hogwarts Legacy.
    The long-term support for PS4 must have a big impact on consumer desire to buy the next-gen console.
    Consoles are loss-leaders though right?
    Sony probably prefer you keep your old PS4 and continue to buy digital games and services like PS Plus Premium

      It's expensive. There are no exclusive games worth even having and I'd like to think even an idiot consoomer would look at the console then their favourite Spider-Man 2 game and believe 'I can't afford to buy a console just for a game that I know is also expensive and won't last very long to play through'. I'm using Spider-Man as an example because I feel that's THE game that's exclusively on PS5 and also what people really fricking want, nobody's getting a PS5 for Horizon, but there's also God of War I guess, which was also on PS4. I think Sony have really became irredeemable now with lack of decent games, needing to spend an inflated amount for a PS5 Slim stand, the constant attempts at selling peripherals over games, when my Bluetooth Sony Headphones can't even connect to my PS5 because they're not compatible, it's fricking garbage of them to do that shit. I had my worries when there were those rumours a year before PS5 released saying they were trying to get the premium shoppers / iPhone crowd that want to spend massive amounts of money for the status of owning shit, and they went ahead and actually did it.
      You're right anon and your post reminded me about the rumours of a PS5 Pro coming and I'm sure we frick they'll do it with even less reasons for anybody to even buy it except braindead consoomers who want the dopamine rush on Christmas Day, before immediately finding they have no games to fricking play on it.

      The average person, which is the biggest market for these systems, they don't care about censorship or exclusives or any of that shit. They just buy it to play games like GTA, COD and FIFA. If the PS5 isn't selling is simply because the current economy is not very good. Not much money to spend on frivolous things like gaming.

        No one wants it because they already have a ps4. Why the frick would I buy a shittier version of a console I already own? The switch is doing fine in sales, it's clearly not because people can't buy consoles anymore like your moronic enough to believe. Hell, name a gta fifa or cod that isn't on ps4 that I can play on ps5, there is none, and no one wants to waste 70$ on a game so even if you own a ps5 your still buying ps4 versions of games anyway.

                and in some cases more powerful
                when you spend 3x more on the PC that's to be expected
                >>PC library is massive and pretty much all games from the past 20+ years work and ones that don't require a little modification
                That's my point. You're clinging to old PC games. The only people who give a shit about old PC games are people who can't run new PC games.

                as soon as someone starts bringing up le poorgays they immediately flag themself as a fricking moron.
                I spend money on upgrading my PC, not to give to companies for a software license agreement to play some garbage SBI game.
                Don't let me stop you from wasting your money though, you pretentious fricking homosexual.

                Very reddit race. PC gamers lack games worth mentioning so they resort to half baked talking points not realizing basic things like console piracy BTFOs PC piracy.

    Gen Alpha grew up with mom’s old iPhone and iPads. They’re not buying consoles like older generations did z

    That’s why neckbeards are so stunned there’s so much money in mobile and PC/cloud gaming. Those kids are now just playing on their own iPads and chromebooks/laptops, and every millennial or Gen X’er in the west who’s wanted a PS5 or Xbox more or less has one already

    Not enough games to make it a justifiable purchase. I've only just recently been tempted to get one, compared to last gen where the PS4's appeal was almost instantaneous.

    Good news bros thefl0w is supposed to drop a kernel level exploit at a presentation up to firmware 11.0 for the ps4 in may, so if your PS4 is at a lower firmware keep it there. Now you can steal games and help accelerate the snoy decline even more, and the reason to own a PS5 which was nonexistent before becomes negative with the prospect of free games.

    PS2
    >massive library, tons of instant classics and good games
    PS3
    >free online, BD player included (big deal in the 2000s), great library
    PS4
    >decent library, Sony charges for online again and gets homosexual with moderation
    PS5
    >playstation has no games meme becomes real
    consoles used to have significant advantages over PC and now they are all glorified DRM boxes and Sony is not exempt.

    There just no games. There are probably 20 exclusives and half of them are movie games, and a quarter are remakes/remasters. This is the most pathetic generation so far.
    Anyway, if Playstation is doing this bad, I wonder how worse Xbox is.

    No games. too expensive for a stronger PS4.

    Only good thing ps5 has is the quick loading. Nothing more.
