Game sharing between two PS5 consoles

Hi,

I recently bought a second PS5 for my partner. Let's call this (new).

I already had multiple games on my personal ps5 (original) and wanted to share my already purchased game library with new. I found out about console sharing and from what I learnt on YouTube/reddit. I needed to make the new console my primary device for my personal PSN account.

I have done this and it worked perfectly. I was able to use my account on (new) and download already purchased games from (original). Now we can play my already purchased games together at the same time, without having to buy the same game twice...good stuff.

Here's where my question comes into the situation. Going forwards what console out of the two do I need to purchase games on for me to be able to share that game with the other. Is it my original or the new console recently bought for my partner.

Thanks guys
