Sony might already have too much preorders and want to ship enough.
I remember the XBO also had this issue.

This may be part of the reason seriously.  They had 140k reservation at one store.  There is no way they were going to be able to fulfill all those preorders.  Just how?

Didn't Sony only plan to ship 200K to China for the year? If so, then Sony really underestimated the demand, like big time...

EDIT: After some searching, Sony indeed planned on shipping only 200K units to China annually (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2014-10-10-sony-preparing-around-200-000-ps4s-a-year-for-chinese-market ). If there are already 140K reservations at one store plus some more from others, Sony will already be supply constrained since these are preorder numbers and the console hasn't even launched yet.
