Can people already stop with "scalpers and miners" The last year there are hundereds of millions people stuck at home with nothing better to do than play games - there would be a massive shortage even without miners. Its the same with PS5 you just cant get them without involving miners. Not to mention that a new console generation just came out and they have to share manufactoring capacity with gpu's.
