Sony Playstation shortage predicted
THE PORTABLE PLAYSTATION from Sony appears to be so rare and sought after that finding machines is turning into a quest, according to a report.
Sony, while scoring massive points on the PR/hype front for the PSP, seems to have lost out on the distribution front with huge shortages predicted. Japan's ITMedia news service reports that Sony has already told major retailers about the number of systems that they will be getting in time for launch and many are complaining that they will not have any. On the first day, the company only plans to ship 200,000 systems throughout the country. That's not a lot of systems. The allotment for each shop won't be very high, and it's possible that some smaller shops may not get any. Pre-ordering is not even the answer, as all available systems were quickly snapped up by the few who were lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time. inquirer |
