Here you are lying pulling things out your ass already.
Which has nothing to do with the post I replied to. Dial back your fanboyism.
This never happened, they only gave up on funding Jrpgs because they weren't selling anywhere, not just in Japan, even with familiar names, MS was still trying in Japan and still had Japanese exclusive, some only released in Japan.
Sony was outshipping Xbox even in NA most of the console cycle so far, which means the only thing that changed even with PS5 productivity becomingbetter, was MS finding a way to produce more units over time until they ended up outshipping the PS5. In NA this is quite interesting because with PS5 production increasing, the Xbox production of the X was increasing at a higher rate, and people were still buying those consoles with those gradual increases, this means you can't actually blame supply constraints for PS5 sales in the three months MS won, because consumers were buying Series X as its production increase over time until it passed the production levels of the PS5.
This simply means that the demand was actually higher in NA for the X and not the PS5, otherwise the PS5 should have produced a much bigger gap in NA to the Xbox Series consoles in sales, and would also mean there should be MANY Xbox Series X on the shelves, Xbox One Titanfall levels, or launch Xbox One edition levels, if the PS5 demand was higher, and MS's increase in production wasn't based on it's own demand. But there isn't, it's still supply constrained, with the few places having a bit better supply, still greatly below what would be considered "normal" stock levels.
Even in Japan the X is supply constrained. As well as several other countries.
If your scenario actually made sense, and the PS5 supply constrained line held merit, than it would end up like Sweden or Spain, where the X was initially supply constrained, but as stock improved the demand wasn't there so when the X did produce more than the PS5 it resulted in a glut of stock, which is why both countries have shipments form last year still sitting on the shelves, while the PS5 is still hard to get.
In many other countries, and especially in NA, it's not the case, the X was behind PS5 production, and yet the gap wasn't very wide in several of them, and then over time since launch the Xbox Series X production and shipments increased, and people were still buying the Series X as soon as it came in, then finally, the Series X outproduced the PS5, and is still mostly supply constrained.
If what the common excuse in this thread was true, there would not be any supply constraints, the X wouldn't be selling much, and the PS5 wouldn't be a a very very very small lead away from being passed by the Xbox Series consoles in general in NA.
PS4 was supply constrained in NA and many other countries as an example, the Xbox One was initially supply constrained and was outshipped by the PS4, but the Xbox One (unlike the Xbox Series) more quickly ended up producing more and outshipping the PS4, and what did we see in NA and in other places as a result? piles of unsold Xbox Ones, in store shelves, in back rooms, on pallets in the middle of the floor.
This isn't even happening with the S model. But it's definitely not happening with the X model which is still supply constrained.
This is why the excuse of "PS5 is still supply constrained and if it wasn't it's be a blow out" is complete nonsense, and doesn't add up.
stop making up shit based on your personal feeling on how the market operates.
