Why are there shortages in NA then? I'm so confused by Sony's tactics. Are they abandoning the US, the single largest market as a country? It doesn't appear to be supply constrained in other areas, unless we assume that it is and it would have sold 3 billion without constraints. What is going on? Also, man others is really swinging PS3 isn't it? Well, name recognition is pretty important I guess.

I don't think they're ignorning US.  I suspect part of the problem is more down to Sony / some Retailers getting in sync with their view on demand.  In US I bet some retailers have either been slow to respond to PS3 sales increase and also some might actually have given most of their space to 360 and Wii and are looking at how to acutally  accomodate more PS3s.

The signals certainly sound like that from what I'm reading.  So I think in US it's going to take a while for this to settle down.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
