Recently, things have not been going very well for Sony PlayStation; there has been some not very positive news regarding game services. Things may be much worse than previously thought. Sony reports impressive sales of PlayStation 5 consoles. However, some doubt the realism of such data. There are rumors that Sony PlayStation is on the verge of bankruptcy. Allegedly, the sales data provided does not coincide with the real ones, and in the manufacturer’s warehouses there are more than 13 million PlayStation 5 consoles simply gathering dust – no one needs them (and the sales figures were overstated). This number arose from the following calculation: there is a “total inventory volume” of 2 trillion yen, for gaming business accounts for 960 billion. If we divide this amount by the unit price of the PS5, it turns out that the console reserves are 13 million units. One of the commentators suggests that the amount (960 billion) was distributed in advance, even before the actual production of new consoles, i.e. still, there are no 13 million PS5s gathering dust. okkubbq draws attention to the fact that the management of Sony PlayStation has recently changed, while the company’s head office is in charge. There is no information regarding the new manager. okkubbq draws an analogy with the Sony household appliances line: once it was abandoned and the company was revived – perhaps it’s time to think regarding closing the gaming line. As far as we know, Sony has accumulated $30+ billion in debt.
