On Tuesday's Kinda Funny Games Daily, Blessing Adeoye Jr. and Snowbike Mike ran through seven stories, but one dominated the conversation: GameStop is now listing pre-owned PS5 Pros for $1,400 — $1,300 for Pro members — a $500 surcharge over the $900 retail price. The hosts found the same pricing pattern at Best Buy through third-party sellers, with Target showing no stock at all. The cause is straightforward: limited supply meeting massive demand with Grand Theft Auto VI roughly a month away.

Mike walked through the experience of trying to find a PS5 Pro on GameStop's website this morning. The storefront still shows the $900 price, but clicking through reveals no new units available and pre-owned listings at $1,300-plus. "That is an alarming thing," he said. "That is the reality of where we're at."
Both hosts connected this directly to conversations they've been having for years about next-generation console pricing. "I think we're talking about maybe $1,200, $1,300 at least when we're talking about the next generation of hardware," Mike said. Blessing agreed, noting that the price hike could push players to sit out the early years of the PS6 generation entirely. "I think people are going to be very comfortable still sticking with their PS5s, maybe even their PS4s," he said.
