Actual numbers are fine. 10k a week is great for Xbox. It's never going to do PS or Switch numbers in Japan. The several hundred per week they were doing was terrible, especially compared to last year
I confirm, in all three countries I lived in in the past 12 months, always in stock and easily available.
In the UK you have been able to buy both the Series X and PS5 for quite a while now, and the consoles on their own as well as bundles.
Yep. I live in rural Ohio and I’ve seen them at both Walmart and GameStop on and off throughout the past year.
Xbox for a long time but PS5 only recently and I do mean months.
Sony hiked the prices away last year but Microsoft has recently put up prices.
The PS5 has been easily available in the U.K since late 2022, bundles at first, then the stand alone consoles, not sure what you are trying to suggest here.
But people are telling you that it was readily available.

Different markets, like I stated earlier in this thread, I'm in Walmart and Target weekly and have only seen a few PS5s and one XSX over the past couple of years. Southeast US
Yeah, they are betting that it pays off long term, but I am skeptical. At least they are able to run general purpose windows instances on the chips. Even if xcloud doesn't ever grow, the chips will not go to waste.
Are you in a large market? I live in a small-mid buying market, so it makes sense from a logistical standpoint why we don't get as many consoles. Remember, I'm speaking about both consoles.
I am in Canada, in the Toronto area so ya, i would consider it a large market.
Ok, well I would say there is more information needed before one could call it "poor logistical" choices. I would imagine no company has a perfected supply chain and you will always find pockets of understocked and overstocked products.
it's a forum, we're making educated guesses but in every thread about this topic people are all saying its widely available.
