PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Special Set : 168,980 yen
It includes a stand and a PlayStation Paper Clip.
Spilled my onigiri all over the place when I read it included a Paper Clip.
Mercari is going to have a field day with that kind of starting price.

To be honest, the regular PS5 Pro is already an insult price wise.
Where did you get that info from? 😭
They’re trying to make up for the flop that was Concord
Just buy a mid-high range pc with that money. Steam sales are lot more common than PS store’s. And Epic has decent weekly free game giveaways.
It really says that Sony doesn’t understand the gaming culture in Japan either 90% of Japanese gamers I know are still playing ps3 or ps4 because ps5 was too expensive already.
Crazy huh. I still want to pick up one of those controllers if possible though. Does anyone know if Yodobashi/Bic/etc will be doing anything for those?
Preorders sold out in minutes in the UK and US-so someone over there wasn’t insulted.
Wonder if the regular PS5 Pro is going to be hard to find here, even at the high price.
It’s crazy how something I bought in 2020 for ¥49,999 is now ¥79,999 4 years later. The same damn non-rare thing.
eh its easy enough to ignore. its a limited run of an already luxury product so im not surprised imo.
If it wasn’t for GTA VI being likely to be released on console first, I would have sold my PS5 ages ago. Absolutely not worth it.
PC Gaming is where it’s at.
They’re encouraging pc gaming in Japan maybe? It’s about time anyway
Anniversary of what?! Hot damn that’s a Huge price!
(Edit: Hugh → Huge)
Tbh they should have released this as covers and a new contoller kit. Way too pricey.
It includes the dualsense edge which costs 30k, so not that expensive for a limited edition tbh.
The standard PS5 pro is an insult, yeah.
I bought a new pc for a bit less than that and now I can play the same quality games but from steam so they’re cheap
Wait until you see the scalpers, like I’ve seen screenshots out there, asking for $3999+
Thats more than my wife’s salary.
The PS5 was a no-go for me since they announced Pro. Getting a mid range gaming desktop instead.
The concord tax
I just want the Dualsense without having to pay Mercari prices 🥲
lol that gets you mid-high range gaming pc, especially if you already have the accessories like monitor 😀
And the games are cheaper from steam, more fps, and are prettier.
Can’t wait until my son wants a ¥350k PS7 for Christmas.
Definitely want to get my hands on the controller but can’t find any information on where there’ll be available to buy except: ”
日本国内のPlayStation取り扱い店およびECサイトにて販売”
Does anyone know?
The insult is the regular PS5 Pro price, the anniversary bundle isn’t absurd at all.
PS5 Pro: 119,980 yen
Vertical stand: 3,483 yen
DualSense Edge: 34,980 yen
DualSense charging stand: 3,819 yen
A total of 162,262 worth of items plus the paper clip you’re so fixated on, a disk attachment cover and some other collectibles for 168,980 isn’t even a 5% markup, even though it’s a pretty special edition.
The pro isn’t for your everyday gamer. It’s for the collectors. So many people want it coz they don’t want to “miss out”. Once you just accept that, it ain’t so bad. Yeah it looks cool, but that’s about it.
I posted this before but….
US Digital edition launch $400 -> PS5 PRO $700 -> 75% increase
Europe Digital launch £450 -> PS5 Pro £800 -> 78% increase
Australia Digital launch AU$600 -> Pro AU$1200 -> 100% increase
Japan Digital launch ¥40,000 -> PS5 Pro ¥120,000 -> 200% increase
One of these is not like the others.
