Partly, but scalpers buying up what inventory there was for reselling was absolutely rampant as well
Yeah, but then they still sold the unit. How would that hurt their sales numbers?
it put me off buying one. I’m probably not the only one.
Scalpers were holding a lot of them and raised the prices so ppl gave up and got another console or a PC altogether. This may not be majority but definitely a singinificant difference and just 1 example for that.
Yup. Sales numbers good, but brand loyalty down which isn't good for future sales
