Shame it's probably worst on ps4 side any smart guy that want to cash in should stock pile ps4s... i know people that can't stand apple and do that with iPhones.... i wouldn't be suprised to see eBay being flooded with ps4 stock piled sellers that don't even care about gaming... that's why i never believed in the power of pre order numbers.... only big fans and money makers are the one jumping in.... Yeah i was being tounge in cheek, just making a joke based on the comments in this thread.  Its a dangerous game tho, i know someone who bought 4 PS3s on launch and couldnt even get there money back on them as stock was so plentifull.

oh I know you weren't serious my answer was just more related to your post than other....

that's why I don't play that game....

but in all logic the more money maker buy high volumes.... the more likely it is to have shortage occure....

for your friend couldn't he get a refund on them ????

If i recall he just sold them to friends eventually and took the small loss as there birthday presents :)

There are different kind of failures.

64 pad, for example, is a big failure to me. Ugly and made for three handed people (are there some in india ?)

PS3 had some problems of overheating, but not much. I never saw or had a problem with the first XBOX, and my SNES is still working.

To me it's just the 360 that was the worst, nothing to do with microsoft in general (But waiting for a blue screen on XBone conf')

It's back on stock after just a day of "selling out". Weird. lol

the billion spent on fixing them speaks louder then Sony and the issues with PS2 that they ignored. The failure rate at lauch was just as high or more and they never admitted it, hence why I buy Xbox.  I didn't see sony backing their product, nope that doesn't happen with sony.
