There are only two reasons for the supply issues that I can think of. Either Sony is seeing a sudden increase in demand in other regions, so they are focusing supply to those. Or Sony is coming out with a slight redesign to cut costs, either to increase profit or in preparation for a price cut.

Well we can assume a sudden increase in demand is not likely in the US based on NPD results for Jan+Feb which have PS4 flat YOY with an extra week included.

 

I would be surprised to see Europe or other regions getting a large unexpected boost for seemingly no reason.

Do we know how is the situation in China? Could it be linked?
