Original: Console market craters: Xbox sales drop 33%, PS5 sales drop 25%
Console sales are falling sharply, with Xbox hardware sales dropping 33% to their lowest level since the console launched 25 years ago and PS5 sales falling 25%. Steep price increases are being cited as a key factor, with the Xbox Series X now costing $800 and the PS5 Pro $900. Commenters are debating whether high prices and a weak game lineup are pushing players away from dedicated consoles.
Why now: Sharp sales declines combined with recent console price hikes have sparked debate about the health of the gaming hardware market.
