At least this week answers last weeks ps4 question (about the shortages)

You're right, it finally answers those questions that some people refused to believe.  :)

"Ahead of the September news conference, Sony has cut production of PlayStation 4 to adjust inventory, people familiar with the matter said. Several major e-commerce websites in Japan, including Sony’s own e-commerce site, said the PlayStation 4 was out of stock.

PlayStation 4 sales have been weaker in Japan than in the U.S. Data from videogame magazine publisher Famitsu showed sales of the console in Japan have been declining slightly in recent weeks. Nevertheless, stocks of the device are likely to run out as the company limits production.

“The white model was gone two weeks ago and we just sold our last black model in stock,” said the chief of the videogame floor at a major electronics store in Tokyo. “Our central purchasing department warned us we wouldn’t get any for now because the item is simply not in distribution channels.”  

They haven't been declining from what a shortage is or new console, (I think the ps3 went to like 5,000-1,000 and same with the 3DS), and again I need sites to actually say sold out and reports from stores listing sold out (I still seen much evidence to say that has not happened yet), but hey now it might be happening "we just sold out", and also I guess this week we will have huge decline if that is true. Poor Tales scarficed for this shortage. 

Edit: D'oh I cut out the WSJ article.
