  • Pre-orders for the normal PS5 Pro went live at the same time as the anniversary edition but are still up on PlayStation Direct four days later.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation opened 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:pre-orders for the PS5 Pro and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:its 30th anniversary collection last Thursday and when it did, chaos ensued. Well, it did for the anniversary stuff. Everything from the limited edition bundle to the PS1-style 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:DualSense is sold out. However, four days later, the regular PS5 Pro is still readily available at PlayStation Direct.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The🦋 PS5 Pro was revealed a few weeks ago along with its price - $700. It was the price that caused controversy as people questioned whether the upgrades it brings are worth such a high price. The complaints about the $700 price tag were drowned out somewhat by 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the 30th-🔯anniversary collection anno𒁏uncement, even though that announcement included a grey PS5 Pro bundle limited to just 12,300 units that cost $1,000.

PlayStation may well have underestimated just how 🌼important the anniversary design of the PS5 Pro was to people, perhaps hoping that once the grey console bundles had sold out, people would turn to the reܫgular PS5 Pro instead. Either that has happened and PlayStation has a lot of stock of the Pro console, or that's not what happened and people who tried and failed to get an anniversary Pro bundle didn't turn to the white version of the console , likely just picking up an anniversary DualSense instead and calling it a day.

The PS5 Pro Is Still Readily Available

The Normal One, Not The Grey One, Sorry

That PlayStation has staggered the release of PS5 Pro pre-orders strongly suggests it was expecting to quickly sell out of the console despite the vociferous complaints about its price. Even though the Pro console is available now through PlayStation Direct, pre-orders won't be available at Amazon and other major retailers until October 10, 2024. There was likely an expectation that Direct would have run out of Pros by then, but as it stands, they'll still be available there once they become available 🥂el🅘sewhere.

The PS5 Pro is the mid-gen upgrade for PlayStation's PS5. While its design is almost identical to that of the slimmer model of a regular PS5, the Pro promises to improve the visuals of lots of key games and also has a 2TB SSD, doubling the storage space of a regular PS5.

It's certainly a far cry from the launch of the base PS5 almost four years a💎go. Getting your hands on a PS5 was not only almost impossible at launch, but basically for its entire first year and into its second holiday season. Perhaps an indicator to PlayStation that the days of the mid-gen refresh are over, or at the very least charging such a high price was a mistake. Maybe if the anniversary version of the Pro was the only version of the console, and it wasn't limited to 12,300 units, it would have been a different story.
