Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

It's a trick from Sony that gives them the reason to ship more consoles, so that our PS3 numbers look ridiculously low

They didn't make as many as they needed so PS3s aren't readily available.

New models that are cheaper to make are probably on the way.

that's the problem, I mean after the impact of the slim why the heck would they underestimate???

Also judging by what vg has and what they said they shipped how in the heck are shortages a problem????

I'm beginning to think sony is either up to something or bs'ing imo

Sony stopped making PS3's months ago. Didn't you hear?? :)

who knows, but there are no X360's in stock in my area either *shock*




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I suspect this, and if true, I will be SOOOOO pissed because I totally would have waited.



No one in the world ever gets what they want, and that is beautiful.
