This morning major retailers like Bic Camera and Sofmap passed out raffle tickets between 9am and 10am with winners announced starting at noon. Those lucky folks could then purchase the PlayStation VR between 12pm and 4pm. 

Here’s how the raffle results were posted at the Sofmap in Akihabara.



Folks holding these numbers were able to buy the PSVR. That means that not everyone who waited was able to get the headset.

More amazing is that in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo, people started lining up last night!

This Twitter user guessed that by 6:46am, there might have been over 250 people in like at that Yodobashi Camera in Umeda.

Holy shi* i thought VR was dead kek.

Resident evil to the rescue

I wonder if it's like the US over there, where half of them are scalpers. 🙄

Someone should tell those poor folks that there is never gonna be tentacle porn on PSVR.

I couldn't imagine rolling around on the dirty sidewalk for 15 hours for the chance to buy a tech doowhacky. Game, smartphone, whatever.

Maybe they are just hoping for a hot chick to fall in line to encoxada. 🤔

With Resident Evil releasing, I'm not surprised to see people looking around for it.

Good for PSVR and PS Pro

Was wondering why it shot up the Amazon charts. If it gets more support i might buy one. I thought the thing was dead lol
