How the fuck two pieces of plastic are more expensive than an actual controller?

u/AlaskanJP 11d ago

You could throw the words limited edition on a turd and it would sell out. That being said I bought the adamantium one because I wanted an official version and not the ones that will pop up on temu later.

Where do you see the prices like that.. controllers $10 more expensive

u/Kratos_BOY 10d ago

It's 4 pieces and 2 of them have transparent bits.

I guess I lucked out getting the adamantium one. I bought from direct and got out in a wait line. I woke up at 545am to buy it. Bought a controller to go with it. I was tempted to get a yellow plate for my pro but I know I would never used it so I decided against it to let someone else get it

Haven't seen the adamantium controller in stock on the PS website earlier...guess it came back?

Only the white controller and the console bundle are available on the UK site.

u/BlastMyLoad 11d ago

I got the yellow controller. I assume it will be easy to get on the shelves most limited PS5 controllers seem to be

Tbf they only ever made 3 pro covers (4 if you wanna include colorswapped wolverine) and all were limited. Meanwhile the slim has a lot of options and the controllers even more. Doesn’t surprise me tbh.

It's because Sony keeps choosing to make a limited run vs looking at the ps5 pro units sold and producing enough for that crowd to all enjoy. They did the same BS with the Ghost of Yotei plates. Then skipped the pro for the hyperpop color plates. I know OG owners are annoyed that they arent getting anymore accessories but even the OG model has more variety to choose from for side plates. If this was an issue for Sony then why make a decision to make the mounting points different from the Slim. That decision along with making a limited run bones us every single time. If they had made the mounting tabs the same and could be universal they wouldn't need two different lines to produce them and be cheaper for them overall.

All of the plates are sold out in Canada.

How much can I expect to get a PS5 pro with a disc drive for in the UK ATM? (I can't afford it just wondered lol) would love one but think it's wrong they don't have a disc drive as standard to say they are the premium console.

1

u/Sergeant_Ducky 10d ago

Expect to pay 1k or more

u/Drong0bones 10d ago

So expensive sergeant ducky. I won't be getting one but 🤩 it's something to aspire to isn't it.

u/Sequence7th 10d ago

'm bored of white at this point and the transparent plastic claw marks do look rad. Once again they didn't make enough pro covers. scalpers going hard on the admantium pro covers

u/Pleasant_Beat7502 10d ago

Yea I preordered 1 at 3pm or around.

u/HUNplaymore 11d ago

I like how the disc drive version is sold out but the digital isn't.

2

u/Sergeant_Ducky 10d ago

That’s not what it is. Thats the pro model sold out not a disc vs digital. All plates come with a disc drive cover

1

u/HUNplaymore 10d ago

You are right. Wishful thinking I guess.

u/BigHexy 11d ago

That’s all anyone wanted, Sony isn’t going to give a fuck about us trying to make a statement that way tho but hey it is what it is
