R&C went out of stock yesterday
2-4 weeks
Sony dun goofed stocking this game in all of US



I still believe that the Uncharted 4 bundles will start to move like they supposed to when the game arrives.



Ratchet and Clank still sold out.

Either that or they were staggering stock against the movie itself. 

Either way you are right, they failed to anticipate demand.   Hopefully this shows there is room for their other platforming IPs

I think people are assigning blame to the wrong person.

Sony doesn't dictate how much stock a company has -- the company purchaser (Amazon) does.

Amazon was the one that placed a low order.

We, how it works at GameStop (and presumably Amazon) is that for new releases, they order based on their preorders.  They thing is, the day before release, it got rave reviews and hit number one.   So, I think you are right, but I think Amazon and Gamestop were both caught blindsighted.  Most of the Gamestops close to me are sold out or low on stock.  The retailers ordered lower then true demand because they had no idea it was gonna be a mega hit until the day of. 



Holy shit. R&C jumped up 20 spots on the 2016 charts. From #48 to now #28. In comparison to Quantum Break which went from #68 to #65. I think R&C is going to have a stronger month than expected.



I think Amazon had the most stock of R&C in comparison between retailers.
I´ve seen people complaining of not finding the game at Gamestop, Best Buy and Wal Mart way before Amazon ran out of stock.

I also think that will affect Quantum Break x R&C on Amazon. I think more people ran over to Amazon after other retailers didn´t have stock. Overall I´d say the difference between both won´t be too big.

Either way great showing for Ratchet, but sad it will probably suffer a little because of cautious retailers.
