Yes, generations are over after this gen if the brand name is Xbox. Nintendo and PlayStation will continue to do what they usually do: exist and sell by the truckload.
Can’t be! This thing was DOA we were told! I guess Spain didn’t get that memo either!
Grow upFixed. The rest of us are enjoying the Pro enough to not care so much. It should do as predicted and that's good enough, just like the 4 Pro.
Edit: Funny that it’s always the same two posters who post emojis but are too scared to actually attempt to debate.Team Andromeda is particularly funny since he claims he won’t reply because the mods unfairly “send him on vacation”. Poor thing.
10.1k for the Pro in Spain are a great number.Can’t be! This thing was DOA we were told! I guess Spain didn’t get that memo either!

haha! You know what, I thought you were moonlighting as a PC guy for a while but your clear Sony fanboyism has really exposed itself over the last few weeks....yet you guys are always pointing (and piling on) anyone with a different opinion, or preference for where they play the majority of their games.Can’t be! This thing was DOA we were told! I guess Spain didn’t get that memo either!
Oh, I agree, that’s what I’m saying!. If I’m not mistaken, wasn’t that higher than the PS4 Pro as well?
PC is my jam. PlayStation is my jam. The difference between you and I? I’ve never bullshitted about my preferences and pretended to be some neutral bounce about.
In Japan yes, as for Spain, it’s hard to say.
So it should be pretty close, which is a win for the 5 Pro considering how much more it is!
I mean, PS4 pro launched at €399, ps5 pro at €799, and the former had the infamous disc drive.
Yep.
You have pretended and I’m not the only one who’s called you on it. You’re better off not going after people for what they prefer because you 100% come off hypocritical.

And instead of looking for a “Sony squad” (in a Sony topic, no less) you could avoid it altogether. Simple and effective. It’s no different than you, and plenty others, who get all up in arms about negative Xbox news. So says it the word of a person with a favorite.
Finally, this thread isn’t negative. For one, there’s no global price cut on a failing product and two, we’re learning through early reports that the Pro is having a decent start. I just replied to one of your posts and you got in your feelings towards one of mine and it had nothing to do with you.
I like you Dench. Don’t always agree, but I still like you. Very few here in fact that I don’t.I was discussing other threads. I'm good bro. It seems like it's others that are getting into their feelings about anything negative around ps5 pro but let's leave it at that. We have had our little back and forth with each other and no point in derailing further!
Yeah the PS4 Pro was a much better proposition than a gutted OG PS5 with an extra beefy GPU sold for an insanely high price. This is just a market test for PS6. Sony is probing to see how much they can increase their baseline costs and preserving the sales. I am happy that the market seems to be very mixed on it. But every argument regarding inflation and cost of production or whatever go out the window by simply looking at the record profits SIE is reaping on a quarterly basis. They're constantly looking for ways to keep break profitability records as nothing gets these people happier than their massive Sony stock portfolios boosted to a luxurious early retirement.

They must not sell very well in the UK. Not that strange because 659 pounds is basically the normal price in the rest of Europe.More PS5 Pro Price Drops at Several UK Retailers (now £40 off @ Argos, Currys and EE store):

Says more about the British economy than of the general success of the Pro to be honest.
What...?
PS4 Pro also had discounts right when it came out. It's nothing related to it doing bad. Black friday month and Christmas coming soon.
I like you Dench. Don’t always agree, but I still like you. Very few here in fact that I don’t.
Lol no you can't. Show me the build list for that with ALL parts. CPU, GPU, RAM, 2TB NVME, motherboard, case, psu, fans, OS, and a dualsense controller
It's always funny to see denial
I'd pay way more than £40 to not have to go to the trouble of copying stuff over/redownloading everything yet again, setting up the system, etc. Doing all that again for a £40 'saving' seems self-defeating.
Argos has always been the baseline for UK pricing(1982 onwards) because they were competitive and pre-printed the prices in a catalogue, and are as big a household name in the UK as Woolworths were
A good point, but IIRC all our goods that arrive indirectly through EU ports still have the EU sales tax baked in too, like they were before Brexit, so unless PlayStations come direct from a region like Australia where we have a different trade arrangement or assembled/'made 'in the UK Sony/retailers see even less of the sales price AFAIK.
I get that, but really it took me about 30 mins to factory reset, disconnect and pack it up in the box it came in? Dropped it off on the same trip I got the new one which has now almost finished downloading everything in the background,
The fact you can't actually a disc drive in the UK either. I bought mine 2 months ago.
Anecdotally I'm seeing it doing a PS3 launch disaster if they've already had to cut the price, because all the people in my group that would have bought it, are the same people that were in early with the 360 back in the day and took at least 3years to warm up to the PS3. The forcing digital is the biggest issue for my group and a price cut doesn't fix that. The console needs a new SKU in the UK already IMO.
Big question is going to be if sales have legs. PS4 Pro sold about 20% of overall units from its launch point.
I wouldn't be so sure. The people I know that buy everything have effectively boycotted buying the Pro over the forced digital angle and the gouging of £100 for the drive. I don't see a scenario where the existing Pro with an external disc drive becomes available at under £600 before they could make and ship a newer Pro disc drive SKU and sell below £700.
for the day!
