While the PS5 itself continued to stand the test of time as the best-selling console in January, veteran analyst and Circana games lead Mat Piscatella says 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Sony isn't managing to sell as many units of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PS5 Pro as it did the PS4's version.
Upon launching this past November, the PlayStation 5 Pro sold quite well (along with its disc drive, which 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:scalpers tried to upsell post-release). It seems that this in൩itial success didn't last all that long, however, according to Piscatella's recent thread on . The analyst begins by posting US video game market highlights from January, including top-selling titles and hardware platforms – which the standard PlayStat🐭ion 5 led in sales.
Compared to last year's January, this year's first month saw far fewer sales in the US overall. "January video game hardware spending꧋ dropped 45% when compared to a year ago, to $205 million," writes Piscatella. "This is the lowest January total for video game hardware spending since the $131 million reached in January 2020. Double-digit percentage declines compared to a year ago were seen across all major console platforms."
The PlayStation 5, despite being "once again the best-selling hardware platform of the month across both units and dollars" in the US in January, saw its sales dip "by 38% year-on-year, with Xbox Series declining by 50% and Switch 53%." When asked about how t🔯he PS5 Pro in particular "is tracking" in comparison to how the PS4 Pro did three months into it♎s availability on the market, Piscatella confirms that it has "fallen behind."
He states that the "PS5 Pro has fallen behind [the] PS4 Pro's pace," but doesn't specify any other sales figures for either of Sony's PlayStation Pro platforms. It's not all that surprising to read, considering the upgraded console's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:divisive $700 price tag, but there's still no telling what sort of ups and downs the PS5 Pro might have in the future – or how and when its successor, the potential so-called PlayStation 6, will materialize.

After spending years with her head in various fantastical realms' clouds, Anna studied English Literature and then Medieval History at the University of Edinburgh, going on to specialize in narrative design and video game journalism as a writer. She has written for various publications since her postgraduate studies, including Dexerto, Fanbyte, GameSpot, IGN, PCGamesN, and more. When she's not frantically trying to form words into coherent sentences, she's probably daydreaming about becoming a fairy druid and befriending every animal or she's spending a thousand (more) hours traversing the Underdark in Baldur's Gate 3. If yo𒐪u s🌌pot her away from her PC, you'll always find Anna with a fantasy book, a handheld video game console of some sort, and a Tamagotchi or two on hand.
