When Sony unveiled its PlayStation 5 Pro this week, Internet users were not convinced by the graphical improvements in existing games, but above all they almost fell off their chairs when they discovered the price: €799.99 for a console without a disc player, that stings.
Since then, the console has been mocked on the Internet, but as is often the case, social networks are bubbles that do not represent the majority of players. As noted Wario64 on X (ex-Twitter), PS5 disc drive stocks are melting like snow in the sun at Best Buythe product was also found in 8th place in sales on Amazonbefore it also went out of stock. In France, well Amazon.fr no longer offers the disc player for sale, stocks are empty, but there are still some left a few copies at the Fnacagainst €119.99.
Many buyers have clearly pounced on the Blu-ray player accessory before cracking for the PlayStation 5 Pro, pre-orders for the console will be launched on September 26, but Players will therefore have paid €919.98 for a PS5 Pro capable of reading Blu-rays.. In addition to this observation regarding the disk player, Ampere Analysis has already published a report (via VGC) and considers that Sony would sell 1.3 million PlayStation 5 Pro by the end of 2024which isn’t too bad compared to the 1.7 million PS4 Pros that were sold during the same period. In the end, the PlayStation 4 Pro found 14.5 million buyers, representing 12% of total PS4 sales. Ampere Analysis thus considers that PS5 Pro to sell 13 million units by 2029.
