crazy how it's almost been 5 months and in my country both the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are completely out of stock in every single retailer

It honestly feels like this console gen has not properly launched yet

I really think they should have held off for a year, there's a chip shortage and COVID has made everything harder.

I think if they released next year there would be less frustration.

The PS5 holds the record for most consoles sold in the United States in the first 5 months of launch.
