Same here. PS4 and the Pro were crazy easy to preorder. Couldn't have been more of a mess with PS5.
Additionally, I I feel like all of my friends that have tried to get XSX's after launch have been able to with some work. Good luck on PS5. Random drips without warning. Sony's Direct Drops may even be worse than a lot of the individual retailers. Suddenly it's just live, even if the consoles sell out, it still keeps you in the queue making you think you're going to have a chance.
Sony's abysmal supply chain decisions (manufacturing in Japan at extremely limited capacity facilities, etc.) has done itself no favors. Between the crap supply chain, crap preorder process, crap game price increases, crap ugly looking console, borderline complete lack of supply of the cheaper digital version, and crap additional storage solution process, I honestly don't know how even the biggest Sony fanboys can't admit that Sony's handled the launch poorly. They got so many pats on the back at launch last gen for "being all about the games", that it's crazy to me there hasn't been more of a backlash this gen when it's obvious their PS5 strategy so far is "all about profit".
