The aging PS4 still has as many active users as the PS5

But PS5 users spend more money and gameplay time on their consoles.

@arstechnica Fun fact! I've had a PS5 Slim for a few months now and haven't actually bought a single PS5 game on account of the free/relatively cheap upgrades available for PS4 games I either already had or have since bought over and above the PS5 version specifically because of the available upgrade and flexibility to play on my old PS4 now relegated to the bedroom.

@arstechnica I finally bought a PS3 for $60 and boy are games for that thing cheap and I think it's mostly the same stuff that's just getting remastered and re-released on PS4/PS5 anyways.

@arstechnica see how they're counting revenue per-user and not the amount of games.
