Looks like stocks continue to improve at least in the UK. About time.
PS5 is now the best selling console so far in the UK for 2022

Hopefully it means the stock will improve in rest of Europe too.

It's not supply demand related. It's cost of production / weakening of the currencies / inflation related.
Seems it was the same in the US.

Japan also is getting more constant ~20k weekly drops. At least for bigger markets, it seems good, there's the need to supply better mid-size ones, Spain for example.

They know they'll sell regardless and the billions that they make in profits currently isn't at the margin they'd like given the increased production costs.

Idk if it should be called surprising, but the stark difference between the severe stock shortage they had suffered in the first 4 or 5 months of the year (even more so than the competition) to now is massive. Plus they have a new revision now which is probably made to be produced more efficiently ahead of the holidays and Ragnarok. Should be a strong holiday quarter incoming.
I wonder if stock in the US has improved to the point that they take the September NPD month not just revenue wise but unit wise too. Will be interesting to see!
I'm still yet to see one in the wild that is readily available to purchase. Even Amazon is invite only. Crazy how popular the brand is over here.
They certainly seem intent on hitting that 18 million figure this FY. I don't think they'll be slowing down at all. If anything they'll probably keep ramping up for the rest of this FY and go even higher next FY to exceed the PS4 sales curve as per their stated intentions. Meaning they'll have to ship over 23 million PS5s next FY. Can anyone confirm, would that be a new sales record for Sony in a single FY compared to all their past consoles?
Very few stores have them from what I heard, but I have never seen PS5 in store before.
Was wondering when the stock was going improve to hit their target of 18 mil, looks like its here :)
They're in stock now at Currys and Argos (Argos is a dumb bundle)
Pretty regularly available at Smyths too, although not at the moment. Amazon have been doing their invite only thing forever, look elsewhere.
What an unexpected comeback for the underdogs. 😉 Personally, I'm just happy we're getting closer to a point where scalpers will have to dump their inventories.
Not sure about walking into a store, but you can usually find them in stock somewhere online.
Agree.
I know execs say things and at times it shouldn't be taken at face value, but Jim Ryan actually mentioned inflation in that blog post.
It is what it is.
Hm, I had thought the PS4 topped off at 19 million in a single FY, but maybe I'm mistaken

Whatever they make it will sell out as demand is still high, got lots of stock alerts last month for PS5. For reference you can buy a series x right now on Amazon UK for delivery tomorrow, also in stock on Shopto and Argos. Stock doesn't seem to be selling as fast for that console.
