      That was me until I traded some retro games I had that were duplicates or not wanted for a PS5 disc (original). I feel lucky!

      Well you were also to poor before the price increase also if you didn’t buy it

      I had a ps5 and actually prefer my ps4 so I sold the ps5. I also have a series x which I highly prefer over ps5

      Look, I get it’s expensive now, but putting away 20 a month for over 5 years isn’t hard.

      I have a PS5, but I’ve been watching a load of YouTube videos on jailbreaking PS3/PS4 consoles. The PS3 in particular had a bunch of games I’m itching to play again, like MGS4 and Skate 3, plus CFW allows for retro-emulation… It’s so tempting!

      I still have my PS4 but not bc I can’t afford the PS5. I figured now wouldn’t be a good time to buy since I’m too busy/tired to play. Plus I wouldn’t have a great setup for it

      I have ps5/pro but I just got a cecha01 and ps4 to play through my old backlog I had

      I got my ps5 pro on release and that was my first PS5. I do occasionally play my ps3 but that’s so I can play games that I can’t play on PS5 like fallout New Vegas

      I’ll get some shit for it but I bought my ps5 a year and a half ago through Amazon, and used Affirm on a two year payment plan. No regrets.

      I got the PS5 in ‘22 then started going backwards and buying older consoles in ‘25

      If you really wanted one, you could’ve. Saving 5$ a week for 5 years is not hard.
