Sony’s PS5 sales are down 29% YoY for the last quarter, missed 21M (20.8M) mark for FY2023, FY2024 target 18M

That high price needs to go but apparently they physically can't reduce it.

[Remij 4,746]

Yea, this year will probably be pretty slow for consoles.  Next year though, with GTA6 and Switch 2 releasing.. and the PS5 Pro out there, will reinvigorate things.

But it’s “killing it”!

That price point is too high, they need to lower it but I’m surprised they are still selling more than 20 million consoles a year at that price. They are selling more than the PS4 was at this point in its life.

They are literally killing Xbox 

 

 

 

 

Crazy Xbox is getting outsold 5 to 1 in the quarter. No wonder MS panicked and are going full third party now.

And you think Sony isn’t either when they’re missing all of their goals?

 Sony is up YoY. They sold more consoles this year than last year even though they are down for the quarter which is impressive considering they haven't had a price drop yet. \

 

 

They have way more room to grow with future price drops, GTA6 launch next year, and PS5 Pro on the horizon.

 

 

  Xbox is dead no matter what MS do and they are ensuring it dies faster with their third party publishing moves and shutting down studios.

 

 

Getting outsold more than 5 to 1 in a quarter is the very definition of getting killed

You’re ensuring Xbox will remain right where it is, all you and Jerry do is playing Xbox games  

 

 

why did you make your Xbox profile private??????

Xbox isn't going anywhere, it's dead. You and a handful of retarded lems are the only ones holding out hope for it.

 

 Not even MS believes in Xbox anymore lol

 

 

Xbox lives on in spirit on Playstation, Switch, and PC though 

[FIREPOWER 796]

@Playstation Tablet You might  need to change your thread title, it's misleading.

 

 

PS5 sales are down YoY if you're comparing this quarter to last quarter but their overall FY sales are up 8.3% YoY.

 

 

Just saying because your thread title is kinda misleading, I thought they were down overall YoY when they are actually up. Actually they sold more PS5s this FY than any other year.

No games 

 

Also everything is 30% more expensive than it was 3 years ago. Non-essential crap like video games are getting shelved. $500 console? $70 games? Just buy a Chinese emulator and play thousands of roms for free and probably have more fun than whatever AAAA slop they’re putting out these days.

The original number was 25 million. They revised that to 21 million and still couldn't hit that.

 

This is what happens when Sony doesn't make 1p games. The momentum could have continued.

 

Wonder what the investors are thinking rn

Investors probably don’t give a fuck. Operating income, profits, and revenue are way up. Last year was their most successful year ever and they sold more PS5 consoles than they’ve ever sold lol.
 

 

 

Also that 25 million consoles target was never going to be reached even if they had tons of first party games out. The console needs a price drop. It still hasn’t had a price drop this gen and in this economy that’s nuts. I’m wondering how they are still growing in overall YoY sales with the prices so high.

 Yes, they actually don't give a fuck seeing as Sony's stock went up after the financial report this morning.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 See, unlike you, I don't have shit for brains and actually base my posts on reality and not hopes and dreams.

 

 

 

The real question is what do the MS investors think about Xbox getting outosld more than 5 to 1 in the last quarter, I think we know that already

[JonDnD 2,724]

Idk why you think I care about xbox. Xbox is dead. 

 

You always compare to Xbox like it's a jab at us here. We don't care lol

 

But investors absolutely DO care

That's to be expected. When they go full day 1 1p on pc ( if they ever make 1p ) it will probably be a similar story.
