Consoles always sell out at the start and it's just a matter of production and allocation for a specific sales window. This screams of fake hype with a higher allotment dedicated to pre-sells than previous consoles. There won't be any PS5s on store shelves come November 12th and this alone will be why.

 

Next year once Sony stops artificially reducing production you'll see PS5 sales fall off a cliff.

Ain’t this a quality spin. I’m sure they’re referring to sales on the PS store only or some shit. 
 

Will be funny when switch outsells it regardless
