      As far as I know they already lose money selling them because they make way more money through PS plus and the PS store

          This is only half true. They are loss leaders early in their lifecycle, but almost (looking at you PS3) always profitable 2-3 years into production due to paying down initial costs of production and efficiencies developed during production.

      I wish they did the opposite. Release a €999 PS5 Pro with specs that justify that price.
