The new price is R$ 3.599, while it used to be R$2.659.
(U$520 to U$ 730)
The series S now costs the same as a new PS5 Digital edition in Brazil.
They deserve it for hand waving the acquisition through.
"I see no concerns with allowing a monopolistic megacorp to get bigger."
-CADE, Brazilian regulator, translated from the original Portuguese.
The avarage Brazilians have little power on the decisions of the corrupt government.
Besides, im pretty sure this is because of taxation or something else like that. Either way, they just killed the console in the country.
From my understanding Xbox has less taxation because they fabricate those consoles in Brazil. At least it used to be like that on the 360 days.
Either way it's a ridiculous decision. Why the hell wouldn't you buy a ps digital now? The idea behind the series S is that it has to have that impulse buy pricing. should be 220 USD at most.
Also gotta love the latin american pseudo communist governments taxing electronics up the ass because they want to protect an industry that doesn't make sense and will never develop.
Brazil really wants to be the real life Night City, huh?They deserve it for hand waving the acquisition through.

Anyone that willingly buys a Series S over a PS5 digital deserves the garbage product.Lmao imagine paying $730 for that
It's always "We need Xbox around so Sony won't become arrogant again," but when we point out Xbox's arrogant moves from the past..."Why you gotta bring up old shit?"Remember when those bitches and hos were saying we need Xbox around to keep arrogant Sony in check so they don't raise the price of consoles? LMAO
