I have noticed that game and amazon have started taking pre-orders of the 80GB PS3 in the UK (which does have a DualShock 3 included) for delivery on the 29th, with game slapping it over the front page. They both still have the 40GB in stock, and amazon are selling it at a slightly reduced price.
So there are only a few things that could really happen.
Either stores start discouting the 40GB now to get them out the way
Or the sales dry up while people wait for the 80GB and then the 40GB will eventually get discounted
Or Sony have really got the stock levels right, so we will barely see any consoles moved in the next few weeks
In the US we dont have a confirmed date for the 80GB, but people still have the incentive to get the MGS 4 limited edition bundle, and we have seen stock shortages recently, which does indicate that stuff is drying up
So do you think that sales are going to go down to nearly nothing during this month until the 80GB comes, or do you think they will stay roughly the same for a short time?
