Sony had planned to ship 15 million PS5 consoles by the end of March 2021. There was a report earlier from Bloomberg that mentioned that Sony had to cut the production of the console due to some issues with chip manufacturers which could lead to a small number of shipments for the users. Sony denied the report and clarified that they are sticking close to their original estimate.

Despite the claims of Sony to avoid a stock shortage, Amazon doesn’t appear to have enough units allocated to deliver to every customer at launch.
