In France
In Paris
In the Fnac, the biggest electronic (and entertainement) retailer in France,

PS3 40gb : sold out

Wii : full (about 20 box)

Xbox360 : full (about 10 box)


Almost the same here only like 10 Wii's and a few X360's (also Fnac) I checked it today because my nephew wanted one. They are waiting for a new shipment (around next weekend) and they had no idea when 80GB PS3's would come.

==> 1/ they said to me they (people from Fnac "Montparnasse", in Paris) were transfering some PS3 from others shops where there still have some unit.

2/ the official release of the 80gb is for the 27th august but it is not sure the 80gb will be accessible everywhere

wait and see.



Time to Work !

I guess I'll let him off the hook then. I'll keep the links up for reference.

I haven't seen any at stores in the US while doing my regular shopping routines at BB or WalMart.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Absolutly hwhat?

 

 

 

 

Also one of the links provided has it in stock. Honestly if you wanted a ps3 (in North America) you can find one, unless you are searching for a specific model (MGS4 BUNDLE). Unlike the wii shortage of 2007, where if you looked, you were just wasting time....so much time... wasted.

It says Quantity: 1 - I'm not saying it's as bad as the Wii or anything that you are talking about, I am responding to the quote.
