I don't think it will be that hard to find. A lot of demand atm is from ebay sellers who think they are going to make a mint but I really don't think demand is there. It'll be like the PS3 launch where everyone said they'd be sold out and then at launch they were readily available. Unless Sony deliberately holds back shipments in an attempt to create false demand.

There are always going to be scalpers, that is the unfortunate thing... I remember reading about some people ordering 9 wii-u's and then just returning them... pretty crappy stuff.

But... I really think if Sony can deliver enough consoles, that will fix the scalpers and allow enough stock.

Ps I do not think for 1 minute that the amount of pre-orders is due to scalpers,... I do not think Sony is creating a false demand and I certainly dont agree there is no demand for a new console after 7 years... I think there is a lot of demand.


Nowhere in my post did I say anything close to what you suggested.

Never said Sony was in fact creating a shortage, just that could.

I never said there was no demand at all, just not on the level Sony is trying to convince people of.

I am sure the Sony loyal will buy it, just like they bought Vita and PSP go and PS3.
