You're overreacting. I really don't believe the X1 will be preordered en masse, with people knowing the PS4 is coming this year.

Even then, it's surely heavily supply constricted.

What Sony announced?

PS4 will launch in Brasil at the same date than US.

Why they didn't give any price or opened preorders yet?

Because they are discussing with government to get a deal for a better price here.

For they have time to do that... the launch of PS4 is in November... so they have a lot of time to make a good deal with the government.

^listen to what this man has to say!

You've diverged from your own topic and are now just ranting... why didn't you make this a topic about politics in the first place?

Well, I stand for what I have said first: SONY.BR HAD THE BALL, EVERYBODY went silent, waiting for Sony.br move, and they dropped.

I will wait and buy a PS4, but in stores the only option for next gen right now is the XBOX ONE, they lost the chance of getting some dozens of thousands of pre-orders.

I will apologize if they anounce a VERY LOW price down the road, like 700U$D, I will applaud and say: "Man, I was so wrong". 

But, as I see it right now, Sony Brazil made a mistake.

And, as far as what Cerny and Stanley said, THEY ARE INSANE, they will never be able to sell the PS4 at R$1000, THEY HAD TO MAKE A FREAKING FACTORY in Manaus to get some taxes cut in the PS3, to sell it at 500 U$D here.

The problem with Sony is that they are a company that assumes everyone plays fair, and, in reality, at least in Brazil, nothing is freaking fair.

I will stick to what I said man: Sony Brazil dropped the ball on this one, pre-orders should be avaliable.
