Not everyone in Japan has a PS3. Read the articla again:

this report could also suggest that gamers are waiting for the Wii big-time (since Nintendo World 2006 was a smash hit).


They're just biding their time until the Wii comes out. Don't worry. We'll get 'em. Wink

They had to reduce their shipment target to 80,000 and (i think) 300,000 in the US. On palgn.com.au, they said that the 88,400 number meant that Sony exceeded their target (albeit a 3rd-revision target) by 8,400 and they've all sold.

There's a link in there to one that sold for 1220 pounds! That's like AUD$3,000!!

Wow. That's pretty cool. Somebody got really rich.

Anyway, I guess the PS3 IS a sellout. Only in 2 days, though. I wonder if the Wii will sell out in one day, though?

doesn't really surprise me too much. Japan as always been about the gaming BIG time. you think Guitar Hero made big hype in the music gaming, check out the arcade game in Japan that includes a whole drum set. once Final Fantasy games start coming out on PS3, it'll probably start selling better
release was botched in japan... but here in the states they will without a doubt sell out in a few minutes unless some small shop which ordered a ps3 goes unnoticed.
Yeah the PS3 launch in Japan did kinda slip under the radar, but it is in fact out there... lucky jerks lol. I envy them.
I wanna go to Japan Smile
Yeah, I think it's funny, Japan, who loves everything Japanese, and will buy almost any console if it's Japanese, didn't buy out the PS3. Long live the Revolution!
80,000 in 2 days is okay to me.
