I quite like the controller, so I'll probably try to get one. Not the Edge though, because I didn't hear them mention quality upgrades for it.

 

[That Damn Kid]

scalper certified

 

[Dr.brain64]

will be sold in highly limited supply

 

[P:axMagellanic]

pointless to announce it in those numbers.

 

[Bond007]

Well I want this. Doubt my chances are high

 

[Codeblew]

Doubt this bundle goes for less than $1200 USD.

 

[Crispy Gamer]

I would hate to go for this edition and miss out on it and the regular Pro I think both will sell out extremely fast

 

[Celcius]

Am I missing it or have they said how much any of this is going to cost?

 

[BooseGumps]

I wouldn't mind the normal controller with its almost guaranteed stick drift but like you say they're all gonna get scalped up. Doesn't Sony sell them from their own website with limited numbers to avoid the scalping situation or at least mitigate it? I know they've sold things in the past but wasn't sure if that made a difference. What do they care as long as they all get sold.

 

[//DEVIL//]

this will be a 3000$ on ebay within seconds.

sucks because I want one. but I don't have bots and I know I will not be able to get one.

 

[RoadHazard]

Fuck of with your digital only consoles.

But that controller looks pretty sweet.

 

[TTOOLL]

This should be the standard color. Fuck them.

 

[JORMBO]

Looks cool. But the Pro is $700 and costs too much. This will be $1200-1500 for the whole package. Not really worth it for a color swap. The console itself is still ugly for the most part. It is funny seeing some people on the internet complaining about the Pro price a few days ago lining up to buy this though.

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

T-That boxart...

 

[Frwrd]

 

[DJ12]

It baffles me that they include a Dual Sense, and Dual Sense Edge in the pro bundle, not the disk drive though, even though they've included the cover.

It's going to be £900 at least.

I like it, but I can get a tin of hammarite in a matching shade of grey for about a fiver.

Maybe if I didn't already have an Edge controller ....

 

[newtypepilot]

Disc Drive sold separately

but we'll include just the cover to rub it in further LMAO

 

[SportsFan581]

Did they say only 12000 or so are gonna be sold? Bro this shit is gonna be $2000. I want it, but I already know I shouldn't buy it.

Probably will have to settle for the controller.

Is that for just the pro version or the digital PS5 sku as well?

 

[possumarmada]

PS5 Pro $700…….worst idea ever
PS5 Pro in Grey……best idea ever

 

[Jigsaah]

Is that for just the pro version or the digital PS5 sku as well?

I'd have to go back and watch the video again....but they had a number on the side of the console. Like 00000/12000 or maybe 23000 somewhere in there. Doesn't matter, the point is it's gonna be really hard to find one of these. I'm at work right now so I can't search for it.

 

[Kings Field]

Pretty cool.

 

[nightmare-slain]

[Hoho for breakfast]

This is ridiculous. They could have made 5x those numbers and the thing would have sold out. I'm going to attempt to get a console but I bet there's no way it's going to happen.

Even the controllers are going to vanish in no time and go for double or triple their cost. This is definitely a scalpers dream as someone said.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

If I can't get a Pro this way I want the sides. Are they selling them separately? If not I will get one made by a non Sony maker...

 

[Arcane0ne]

Grey ps5 and pro look miles better than regular one.

 

[Valedix]

Man that pro looks sexy in those colours but for $1000 AUD rip.

 

[kruis]

Nostalgia’s one hell of a drug

Hmmm ... if I want to preserve my current good looks I'd better switch from alcohol to either crack or cocaine... I think I'll go for crack, that'll be easier on my budget. Thanks for the warning!

 

[Radical_3d]

I just realised I’m going to pay 4090 money for this ;~;

You may not be the only one as I really want one no matter where I get it from

 

[FrankWza]

If not I will get one made by a non Sony maker...

Theyve been available from a few places for a while.

 

[Radical_3d]

I mean if I get lucky an snatch one here in Europe. Not that I’d get it from scalpers. I’d imagine eBay prices of this in euro translated to dollars will be your whole GDP.

 

[Metnut]

PS5 should’ve looked like this to begin with

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I will try to get one from PS Direct but if I can't I will turn to other means

I want one of those numbered editions

 

[Trilobit]

I don't need it.

...

 

[n0razi]

I just realised I’m going to pay 4090 money for this ;~;

Yeah but you can sell it for 5090 money!

Looks like the ad targeting is pretty focused these days ...

 

[TheTony316]

 

[ZehDon]

Man, that shit looks cool as fuck. I won't buy any of it, but it looks nice.

 

[TGO]

I do really like that, I'll never have one though
Not because of money, but because I never get a chance to get to the check out.
Be nice if they did the faceplates in mass production, but even if they did it would be limited and fall to the Scalpers.

[Putonahappyface]

I read in the YouTube comments section that this will only be available in the US and Japan. Is this true?

From the blog-

"In regions where direct.playstation.com* is available, players with a PlayStation Network account can pre-order the following PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection products exclusively from PlayStation starting September 26."

• PlayStation 5 Pro Console – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle
• PlayStation Portal Remote Player – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (standalone)
• DualSense Edge Wireless Controller – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (standalone)

"*Regions where direct.playstation.com is available: U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Austria."

I'm assuming there will be small allocation of stock to each of these places, but who knows. They should really open this up to some kind of pre-sale registration and then pick people at random to offer them a chance to purchase these. Otherwise it's just going to be bought up by bots and sold at a crazy premium.

 

[nowhat]

.... sigh. Unzips wallet.

Yeah, well, since this probably won't make it to market here, being a very limited edition... unzips pants.

[Lambogenie]

Super unlikely. Why skip Europe when it's always been strong for PS? Previous 20th was available there.

 

[n0razi]

Am I missing it or have they said how much any of this is going to cost?

The limited Pro will be $1k easily

The Portal is fucking awesome. I use it every day.

It even works away from home. If I don't have WiFi, I use my cellphone as a Hotspot and it works great.

I honestly can't imagine going back after having both Switch and now PS5 + Portal.

At $199, it's a no-brainer - even if you only use it around the house.

Any modern smartphone or tablet with something like a Razer Kishi or Gamesir controller will do the same thing without having to carry around a dedicated device

 

[kazuyamishima]

If they're doing a 30th anniversary PS Portal edition, it means the peripheral is been successful for them.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Does Playstation Direct take a deposit and then the whole amount on release?
