Do PSVR2 units sent to journalists and such count as "sold thru?" I don't know if I've heard of anyone actually buying one. I have the original PSVR without the HDR pass thru, so I was thinking about getting PSVR2 to play the old games with less hassle, but then they announced the old games wouldn't work, and I'm not paying more for the add-on than the console, so I'll see if they ever drop the price.

Remember that PSNow subscriptions carried over as PS Premium subs. People stocked up for cheap before the transistion. I don’t think Premium is worth it at all, but I got in for low price until it expires
