    Nah, it’s never going back to how it was, even when RAM prices normalise. Why? Node shrinks. They just don’t happen anymore. That was the main reason why price drops could happen previously. As it stands there’s no shrinking left to do, so no massive price drops.

      Even if that were true, the prices wouldn’t increase either. I think there’s more factors at play though that make consoles cheaper over time.

        The prices increase with inflation and costs. They’re not getting cheaper to make, which means that they have to increase the price to match inflation.
