Because you can't find the damn console OP, are you seriously this clueless or trying to create a shit-storm of a thread? Congrats, you've accomplished that. But yes, none of my friends have been able to get even ONE console (PS4) since it has launched, we check a lot too. I am the only one whom pre-ordered and have had mine since day one. Even when Amazon got their restock, they sold out in 15 minutes. When I tried to check out with one in my cart, I got an error saying they all sold out. And I've NEVER seen a PS4 in the wild (retailer). Ever. Honest to God. But I've seen XBONE quite a few times, they come and go at Best Buy in my area without issue. Their last one was sold out only 4-5 days ago, forgot which day it was. And that was a black box, which means "day one" edition.
WiiU has millions in circulation, not being sold. Being stored in warehouses, not being shipped anywhere. PS4 isn't anywhere, so of course sales will be lower. Put two and two together. USA is getting small shipments, expect about 125-150k each week now that the EU launch is over. Why? Because they only make about 1 million+ units per month (estimate on expert sources). WiiU had a factory close down that Sony is looking into buying (not for console uses) which shows that they over produced, and are in no desperation to get another factory up and running. They have far to many of these components.
