| ioi said: Huge PS3 shortages this week guys |
After doing a bit of research today i can confirm this is bullshit.
I trecked around London like a nut job walking into every electronics supplier and even Blockbuster ( i know, i know)
while my brother in NY did this too. He found the PS3's were everywhere and i found the same here in London. No evidence at all to believe there is a supply re-straint. Supply restraint means there are none nowhere, not the local gamestop that had only 4 in anyway has sold out. Restraint means like what happened with the Wii there were none to be had anywhere and you would have to go to a different country to get one. And the icing on the cake, i spoke to a worker at Amazon who explained to me they have loads of PS3's in stock and haven't had any signs of a shortage in fact sales have been normal with the 40GB version doing ok.
So i think you might need to re-evaluate what you mean by shortage
