Not at all. Why would they hold stock?  whats the point?  I see no advantage... none. 

Having at least some stock available in stores, on the busiest shopping day of the year, is absolutely an advantage.  Hardcore fans will search all over the place day and night for a unit, but they're almost guaranteed to come eventually so they're less of a priority than the casual buyer who just happens to be at the mall on BF.


Not if you will sell out reardless.  You may as well sell out week 2 as week 3. There is no advantage to Sony in doing this... None.

Wjat you are saying is lets hold back stock from week 2 (from hardcore gamers) and sell them week 3 to casual gamers potentially looking for a bargain (that they wont get on a PS4)... why!?  Sell it to the hardcore gamer week 2 and hope the casual one picks up a ps3 in a deal week 3 makes far more sense.

 

 


If i'm Sony I prefer sell more than Microsoft in BF week. you will receive a lot of advertisement for beating your rival in that week in USA (and you know it), than this last week that no one care. In sales is the same, true, but in recognition and people awarness is not the same at all....
