So the PS5 is going UP IN PRICE in Japan???

"The price tag has been increased from ¥66,980 (around $462) to ¥79,980 (around $552) for the standard and from ¥59,980 (around $414) to ¥72,980 (around $504) for the digital-only. This change will go into effect September 2."

And this is pretty much happening before thr PS5 Pro is supposed to be announced... What?

The only thing that would make sense here is if Sony wants to scare people into buying the remaining stock now, hope they caught a few idiots to double down on a Pro after, and/or clear stock so that the Pro becomes the only model or something

But a price increase, this late in the gen, is insane and unheard of. It's almost as if they want to get steamrolled
@coolboymew Sony knows that their fans are retarded paypigs and will put up with anything, if they weren't, the PS5 would have sold less than the Wii U.
@ChristiJunior They're also increasing the price of controllers, portal and such

This is insane, just as Nintendo is more or less pulling a PS1 slowly, and this is gonna accelerate it

@coolboymew @ChristiJunior they haven't gotten off their high horse since the success of the ps4 and it will be their eventual downfall
