Was making the PS5 Pro so expensive a mistake? It's probably still too early to tell, but the pace of sales have apparently fallen behind the PS4 Pro's

The PS5 Pro, launched at a price of $700 without a disc drive, initially appeared to be doing well according to Sony. However, industry analyst Mat Piscatella noted that it has since fallen behind the sales pace of the PS4 Pro. This decline may not solely be attributed to its steep price, especially as consumers face rising costs in various sectors. The shift towards multiplatform releases is also highlighted, as fewer exclusive titles may be diminishing the console's appeal and sales potential.

"Despite Sony claiming the price point of the PS5 Pro hasn't negatively impacted sales, industry analysts reveal that it's underperforming compared to the PS4 Pro's initial sales figures."

"As more titles go multiplatform, including potentially major franchises like Halo, there appears to be a lack of compelling exclusives to drive PS5 Pro sales."
