Sony to have its biggest year ever in console sales

Despite the fact that PlayStation 5 consoles continue to be out of stock across the globe, the system is selling just as fast as they are being made.

With that in mind, it seems that the Tech giants company Sony is confident that it can supply enough systems to meet demand, with the next fiscal year expecting to be the company’s best year ever in terms of console sales.

Below is a list of Canadian retailers where you can buy the PlayStation 5 online and some that may be getting period stock in small numbers:

Canada PS5 ($629.99): Best Buy | Amazon | Walmart
Canada PS5 Digital Edition ($499.99): Best Buy | Amazon | Walmart

Despite there being a lot of online gaming in Canada, when it comes to best Canadian online casino, they do exist. There are technically very few laws that relate to playing online, with many provinces never legislating either way, or others allowing several forms of online gambling.

In a report by Japanese site Jiji – and translated by ResetEra – Kenichiro Yoshida, President and CEO of Sony Corporation told shareholders that the company would be drastically increasing the supply of PS5s made available over the world across the next fiscal year.

With this increase in mind, Yoshida expects Sony to sell more than 22.6 million units during the next fiscal year. If true, this would give the PS5 the biggest ever year in the history of PlayStation when it comes to console sales.

Meanwhile, Australia is getting a new wave of PS5s after months of delays. Here’s where you can get one.

Big W is definitely going to accept new orders for the console. Additionally, Amazon is preparing to take on new orders.

Australians are spending more time and money on online casino games than ever before, the average Aussie wagered $1,292 on slots, poker, blackjack, roulette and sports betting.

The nationwide lockdown coupled with easy access are two of the reasons there’s a rise of casino players this year. There are numerous australian online casino, another reason Aussies play casino games so much other than gaming.

The previous record was held by the original PlayStation, which sold 22.6 million units in FY1998. The best selling year for the PS2 meanwhile was in FY2002, with 22 million units. The PS3 performed much weaker, with its best selling year being in FY2010 with 14.4 million units sold. Finally, the most recent generation was a big one for Sony, with 20 million PS4 units being sold in FY2016.

Yoshida’s expectation for more than 22.6 million PS5 units in FY2022 shows not only that Sony expects the PS5 to be one of the console manufacturers biggest generations yet, but that the company expects to be able to meet that demand. It will be interesting to see how long it will take for Sony to sort out their stock shortages.
