People did say thanks to him but also that they were rather easy to get in a number of stores around the place. Would be like if I informed you there was sugar for sale in the supermarket next to me, it's there, what I said isn't untrue but then he went one further to say "you better hurry" why... I could suggest you should hurry out to buy the sugar too, but if you dont hurry it will still be there in 2-4-7-etc hours time or if it isn't there like others said you can walk into many game stores and just buy them still, Microsoft did a great job of creating a supply to meet their demands.

Its by no means a bad thing that Microsoft done, they set out to deliever in 13 locations, their key areas of sale where they wanna please everyone there before the markets which mean less to them, while I think Sony guarenteed their stuff would sell out by spreading it so thin... they've left a lot of desire for more systems before christmas and it's gonna lead to some upset pressie opening on the 25th imo.

It is funny how all these people on forums say "my store sold X amount of consoles in this many days" and use that as their proof for something. Most of GAF and people on here seem to all know how fast these retailers are selling their stock and know exactly how much they get.

It is amazing how everyone has the inside information across the country.

It's amazing how walking into a store and seeing what products they have to sell at a given time is "inside information"

It is inside information. People go inside stores and get the information
