Yeah, and a lot of PS5's there were out there weren't even in the hands of people who actually wanted to buy and play games on them. They were in the hands of scalpers. And after some people dropped their $1000 out of desperation to get one, they had barely any money left to buy games with.

A lot of launch and first year games probably got hammered sales-wise. Read a lot of articles about how most PS5's were in the hands of scalpers instead of customers who would have purchased at least 2 or 3 games. Then, people who dropped $1000 or more on ebay probably couldn't afford more than 1 game for quite awhile.
