Sony misses PS5 sales target as console enters ‘latter stage of its life cycle’::Sony has cut its sales forecast by 4 million units for the fiscal year, down from 25 million to 21 million. It comes as the company missed its sales projections by a million.
Lower the price.
Yep, the ps2 was half the launch price by this part of the cycle.
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.
and curb scalpers
I wish they did the opposite. Release a €999 PS5 Pro with specs that justify that price.
