Shameless on 06 June 2008
I'd like to add that this could be a rough estimate of how many bundles were sold:
UPDATED INFORMATION
Thanks Kagari for the post:
The 80GB Metal Gear Solid 4 PS3 bundle will be going to most retail outlets who will be getting around 15,000 units in the first shipment.
Replenishments will be done according to a store's relationship with Sony, IE, does that store sell a lot of Sony products, games there.
So it's not a 1 shipment only deal. Stores will be restocked with the 80GB PS3. I suspect stores like Best Buy will obviously get more stock.
As far as I am aware, the bundle will go on sale at midnight for the stores doing midnight launches.
Also, GameStop/EB are running a really decent deal right now for those looking to upgrade. Trade in a PS2 with any extra controller and
a memory card and get $80 toward the purchase of a PS3. I don't know how long this is running for, but it will at least go through June 8th.
If you want one of these PS3s on day 1, I suggest getting to the store early on the day it comes out.
GameStop will not be taking preorders on the bundle, period.
