Well it seems that whole "supply problem" thing has once again appeared. Some people believe it and some don't.

So to get a better picture of it what is it like in your area? Are you seeing none in your stores?

I went into my local store earlier and thought i would take a picture for you

That is from a shop in the UK. As you can see PS3's gathering dust. They are in the sale for £220 with GOW3. I asked the sales assistant have you had problems getting in stock and he said "no our problem is selling them".

So that sort of contradicts the whole "can't find one anywhere" argument that has been going on.

But what is it like where you are?

I suppose if your area dictated the market trends you might be right. However, where I live (Roanoke, VA, USA) there are three Walmarts, a Best Buy, a Target, and at least 4 game stops. While I cannot speak on behalf of all of those stores, I can speak that the Gamestop nearest me only have refurbished systems, two of the three Walmarts are out of stock, and the Best Buy never has them. However in all of those retail locations, each of them are fully stocked with 360's and Wii's, all of which are in plain sight of the consumer. To say the least the demand for Wii and 360 is seeing a decline in at least my area.
