Unfortunately generations are dead and with it most subsidised hardware to make money back on software because premium software is on the decline. There is very little reason to subsidise hardware anymore with most premium software sales being replaced with lifelong GaaS stuff people play between multiple generations. It's going to be difficult.There gonna have to for main commercial market. They said PS5 Pro is for enthusiasts. Would be stupid to have that same price for normal buyers.
Will come with a separate disc drive to keep the price at 399- 499. People will bitch. Media will fake uproar and FUD.
Id be surprised if they sell a PS6 digital version for more than 499, would be a slow start for them like the PS3 era in that case
