Yup , Launched today in Kuwait.
All of the stock in the official Sony sore was already gone when I got there ( within the first 3 hours of the official launch ) they only had pre-ordered units waiting to be collected.
X-Cite (the biggest electronic store in Kuwait) had 7 units left, 2 units were sold in front of my eyes. The PS4 is on fire, I don't think any console has ever created such a big buzz here. I was lucky to get mine, I honestly couldn't resist.

Yes I agree, here in Morocco we had it on the 30th, my local store had 30 sold out very fast. at a 605$ pricetag !

Hi, what's the price there like in US dollars? How many do you think will sell in Kuwait over the next few years?

Do we think we will see a big boost in sales next week then, with these 11 new countries?


According to FamousMortimer they shipped 500k to Asia and they will sell out.


isnt Asia next friday

You're right. I wonder if he mixed up the weeks or mixed up the territories.

If its another 500k on the 20th the PS4 is easily passing well beyond 3M this year.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

The offical price is 130 KD = 460$. As for the second part, I honestly have no idea. Sony, however, is taking  "us"  seriously for the first time. relatively big  advertisment campaign , Arbic Language support ( on the boxarts/in-game subtitles ), very good offical price . We never had any of that before. I think it is safe to say that the PS4 will dominate here and break the records.

Take that with a grain of salt.

Sony decided to sent 500k units for Asia + Middle East because they have certain they will sell all the 500k there just with the preorders... they didn't expect to sell these 500k units in US for exemple so they decided to sent them to a place that they have certain they will sell it.

At the end US surprised Sony... in a good way... if they sent these 500k units to US they will get SOLD OUT too.
