This is a pathetic thread, ngl.
I don’t think it’s all that seriousYes, it's mostly an exercise in cope and shilling.
First it was the poor-shaming (you guys can't save up $700? OMG such poor then you shouldn't even think of gaming just go work harder lololol).
Now it's "see? It doesn't even cost you that much to save up for the console! Chop chop just go buy it!".
It's because the vast majority of Americans are absolutely TERRIBLE at managing their money. They will go out and buy an $80,000 pickup truck for vanity and get a 8 year loan so the interest causes it to cost over $100,000, then wonder why they're broke all the time.I found median to be way better for wages than averages. Averages are inflated by rich guys.
Median shows kinda the most of people typical earnings.
60k sounds like a pipe dream to polish people lol. I get way less than that and I got "plenty" of cash to spend for 700$ console. So it's really strange to see americans crying for 700$ console lol
What's the argument for a $500 PS5 base? It's only $200 differenceYes, it's mostly an exercise in cope and shilling.

There's a certain privilege to living in the USA.
For Europeans, the base PS5 Digital cost 400€ at release while the PS5 Pro costs 800€. That's twice the price.
If you're a PS5 disk customer (i.e. you have a disc library of games), the release price was 500€ with a drive and a stand. The PS5 Pro + drive + stand costs 950€. That's almost twice the price. In usd that's $1050 by the way.
As comparison, the PS4 Pro released at 400€ in 2016 with a bluray drive, exactly the same price as the PS4 in 2013.
To be honest I would be fine with paying $700 for the PS5 Pro, that's 635€. I would even be fine with paying $700 + 25% to compensate for VAT and warranty, and that would be 730€.
But Sony decided that Europeans are just pay pigs who need to pay more than Americans because they're worth less as an audience that needs to be kept satisfied, and that rubs the wrong way.
Price is the only reason.And then you have people wondering why PS5 is trailing PS4 sales in Europe.
I'm thinking they're expecting a major sales increase with GTA and the next PES/FIFA title.
Haha, I actually love coming to Florida, as a holiday anway. Orlando, Clearwater, St. Augustine. Going through some of the smaller beach “towns” as a kid was coolWhatever you do dont move to florida haha.
Price is the only reason.
that's the problem. I don't understand why Europeans have to pay so much more.There's a certain privilege to living in the USA.

Americans always pay the least and cry the most

Because supply chains from Asia to Europe are more expensive than from Asia to the USthat's the problem. I don't understand why Europeans have to pay so much more.
