After the Wii U was one of Target's best selling online items during Thanksgiving weekend, the retailer has begun sending out notices to customers cancelling their orders. It appears Target sold more Wii U systems than they had to offer.
PlayStation 5 consoles will once again drop to just $449.99 on August 6 in the US.
@darth the sales numbers in the UK, where this price cut has already been implemented, strongly disagree with you.
No. They are going for off loading before the slim. I'd save my $ till then. Unless that kinda thing doesn't matter to you.
That's November..
This is for kids on summer holidays
Not everywhere is hot and sunny like California, some kids, need things to do when it's raining/cold and this, is it.
They going to bury Xbox. Xbox will turn around and justify the mobile/streaming shift.
They already are burying Xbox... this is just another nail in that coffin. Sony put the hammer away and busted out the nail gun.
i believe they want as many gamers to buy PS5 as possible because once someone buys into the ecysystem they are a lot less likely to leave for another platform
This is how Sony goes for the jugular. Microsoft can’t afford to make games exclusive if it doesn’t have any marketshare. Also clear that the discless PS5 will be the single PS5 going forward and the disc drive will be an add-on. When the $300 PS5 slim launches, the hot sales of PS5 will go super nova. (Don’t feel like you need to wait. On an annual cost basis, you may be better off getting a $400-$450 PS5 that you can use now versus waiting for a console that will be obsolete sooner.)
"Microsoft can’t afford to make games exclusive if it doesn’t have any marketshare".
Sheesh, and here I thought M$ had a monopoly on the gaming market. Sony owing most of the market means it'll be easier for M$ to buy publishers to compete lol
Stand by my boy. Digging up this goal post. Pardon while I write my new narrative.
Looking forward to when Microsoft drops the price of the Xbox Series X & the comments will be that Microsoft are desperate lolol
Mid week-to end-of-week usually mean Walmart and Target are our best bets
9AM Eastern today. That was when the Sanrio Animal Crossing: New Horizons amiibo cards were supposed to go live for "in-store pickup" ordering at Target. You can guess what happened next. - Destructoid
It's amazing how much all of these companies sell within this 1 week. I'm looking for a new GPU and everyone is out of almost every GPU, it's insane.
Thats dirty of them to do that.. I guess people cant count
literally ruining christmas
I don't know why Nintendo wouldn't step in and bend over backwards to save this! I don't care. Nintendo would have three weeks or so to do all it can to pull from every supply channel to not disappoint those people. It may ultimately be Targets fault, but it could sour them - unfairly of course - with Nintenfo too. That's too bad. Sad.
