celador said: We will have to wait and see. I have my doubts about whether these bundles are going to come back in stock at all, at least on Amazon. If that means Sony are concentrating on making more Star Wars and Cod bundles, then that is the better strategy imo. Looking forward to seeing how those two SE bundles do next month, I hope Sony has plenty of stock for the Star Wars one especially. That is a bundle that can remain strong throughout December as well if they produce the stock for it. Also, Fallout continues to impress on the charts. Comfortably outselling another huge franchise in Assassin's Creed, despite that game's release being less than 24 hours away. Expect to see the X1 Fallout bundle in the top 100 very soon. |
Firstly, a corporation is an individual entity, therefore the correct phrasing is "Sony is", but I am often guilty of writing "are" and having to go back and correct it, or not even realising I wrote "are".
Secondly, from a manufacturing perspective I don't think it's an either/or situation. TLOUR is just a different cardboard box as it's a plain black console, so I don't think there is a need to change manufacturing focus as Sony is probably producing plenty of plain black units, given they are being sold through the NDC. If anything Sony's changing the focus for where it puts the plain black units onto the ND collection. Sure, each of the main sku's now need to have cardboard box manufacturing time allocated, but I would think it's less of a problem to pump out cardboard boxes than to pump out consoles.
