PS5 barely missed its sales target in latest earnings report, and Sony expects to sell even less by next year (www.destructoid.com)

Eh, the MSRP isn't a big worry for me, that makes sense

What sucks about PlayStation pricing is they keep MSRP except for sales for way too long.

Like, I saw last year's Madden for $12 and almost got it, then it went off sale and back to $70 like a new one isn't coming out in a few months.

Rather than off sale prices slowly going down

Are you blaming Sony for EAs game pricing?

...

You think it's just EA games?

See, but this doesn't really hurt Nintendo's sales. The problem is there just really are no games on PS5 worth playing that you can't play somewhere else.
