I love the Seinfeld quotes, keep em coming!!

@Kantor: I don't even celebrate Christmas. I prefer Festivus (for the rest of us!).

The other guy's Seinfeld is much better than yours.  Puffy Shirt >>> Festivus Seinfeld.  Plus he has the name.  Lazyrider has nothing to do with Seinfeld.  

Remember, it's not a lie if you believe it.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

Thanks George. But no need to lie, I never watched Melrose Place... I could go all day!

When VGC get the numbers, will they show a split betzeen Slims and Phats (kinda like in Media Create Jap figures that show DS Lite and DSi)? Curious to see what the Slim will sell cause by the looks of things, what Sony ships, it'll sell.

@toastboy - I got your point, but didn't need to read it twice. I think we all agree that the Amazon sales chart means very little, but it would be scary if Amazon only received 1 slim. The PS3 Slim has been number 1 on their sales chart since preorders began. That would mean Amazon didn't sell any Wii Sports Resorts or Wii Fits.



I don't agree that the Amazon sales charts mean very little, but agree that they don't mean everything.


You make a good point indicating that it's sellilng higher than Wii Sports Resort... which at leave gives an indication that it's doing well in comparison to something which sells well in general. 



If they ever ran out of PS3s I didn't notice, they seem to be well-stocked right now...



I just had a look at the amazon charts for the US, UK, France and German websites. Observations:

- Slim not always number one (sometimes Wii Motion + and WiiFit in front) but always ahead of the Wii
- 360 never found in the top 50
- some phat PS3s appear pretty in certain charts at the 299 price tag but behind the Wii 5in France you can get a 80gb with GT Prologue and GTA4 for 299 eur, excellent deal!!)
- DS oddly never well placed
- no sign of PSP

I'd conclude that you can't extrapolate too much from these charts.

Edited typo...

amazon got 1, amazon sold 1=sold out! ;p

thats not the case but u get my point

while that is kind of true, you can get a better guage by looking at the other things in the top 10, it has wii beaten by a large margin, but it's anyone's guess how much amazon has of each.

I'm pretty sure it's sold out in gamestop as well..

no I wasn't... But I must admit I was looking to pick a fight, I still haven't been on a forum fight before and I got jealous of the other Seinfeld guy.

And your mentioning of the PS1 tempted me (cause I found bringing up PS1 figures semmed foolish to me).

But too much time has passed now so I am no longer in fighting mood. You got lucky...

I like you :P ps1 ftw btw

@dbot, i kinda had the idea that he was, being another seinfeld guy.

For the record, I am not "Seinfeld"...

are you master of your domain?

lol I am king of the castle.

I guess Bestbuy.com sold out as well. The PS3 Slim is back-ordered now with a 1 - 2 week estimate.
