Both companies have said that covid19 hasn't affected their plans for launching next generation. I expect console shortages, not a expensive price point.
neither company is gonna admit anything is wrong. and not affecting their plans doesn't mean it won't affect the price

Both companies understand that a price point above $500 is infeasible. Both companies understand that consoles are sold at a loss and that majority of the profits comes from software and accessories.

Has covid19 even had a drastic effect on the cost of any tech releasing this year?

I'm only saying that the manufacturing cost might have changed since it leaked in February. I understand that they may be willing to eat that difference to hit a certain price point

I don't know if we've seen any direct effect yet on the price of tech. but most stuff releasing recently was probably pretty much ready before all this started. it's the more long term effects that I think are unknown

Both companies sound pretty positive about the systems coming out at an affordable price.

Both companies have spoken on price point during this pandemic and seem pretty confident.

I'm open to being wrong, but neither company seems dumb enough to go above that $500 price point.

The total manufacturing cost of the system was already leaked at $450.

How did you come to the conclusion that the system would launch for $700?


:gucci:

:mjlol: Probably cost 100 to make but "leaked" an inflated base cost to justify an inflated price.


Still coping though :yeshrug:

With the parts used to make these systems, I doubt it.


Mass scale though?


And Sony is in japan which is closee to China who owns the largest amount of rare earth mineral used to make chips, semi conductors.

They are already getting these parts for a massive discount. That $450 figure already takes into account mass scale bulk prices. Some of these parts aren't even available to the public yet.

Bruh, who gives a fukk what somebody said somebody said. We know the specs, we know the services each offers. We know Microsoft isn't waiting around this gen and all you got is a controller, a tech demo, knack 3 and a bunch of hearsay rumors. Remember that rumor the ps5 would be back compatible all the way back to the ps1? You was certain that was the case, but why? Besides because Microsoft is doing it, you nikkaz hope shyt up. I hope this happens and I'll find the first tweet that hopes shyt too and that'll support my hopes and dreams...

Nope :umad:

Yall gonna be hype off some basic launch title games like ratchet and clank, and a couple teaser trailers for games that drop in like 3 years.


And I hope they prove me wrong and give me a reason to pick up a PS5 at launch.

The biggest title for Xbox Series X launch so far is a game you don't need to buy an Xbox Series X for. :mjlol:
