so true, even in the US markets we never ran out of S's, Resellers would come in and explicitly state "do you have anything but the S" because everything else was super looked for but it seemed you couldn't give those S's away lol

I mean it makes sense. The S was marketed as a budget console, so all the people looking for the actual current Gen platform just lurked around until an X popped up for sale. And beyond that, the S didn't get hit by the chip shortage nearly as hard since it's lower end hardware.
