i think i'm going to be sick

edit: wait, is wii still sold out in europe? that might be a question worth asking in response to this
That's Bollocks,

Everywhere I look there are PS3s on the shelves.

There isn't a Wii to be found anywhere

How would that affect launch sales?

>_< MY COUNTRY HAS BETRAYED ME!!
oh wait... i wonder if people in europe are going to put their PS3 on ebay... MUAHAHAHA
It would be kind of pointless with at least 60 000 left on the market.

But, there are always stupid people.
god bless the stupid people, if it wern't for them, there wouldn't be any rich people
Launch sales mean nothing, it's the final tally that counts...
Too bad that link didn't actually tell us when all of that was taken.
I know but -_-

Edit G4 just showed that the lines were not long in Europe for the launch.

Whats with people cant spell launch..

Anyhoo that vid was hilarious.. well its not a vid. more like 3 pics but still funny.

PS3 Did Successful Because Its the whole of Europe, which has a lot of people = a lot of sails ..sorta.

Once again, can we get a link that states this is an actual line for PS3's? I have no problem believing it's real, but I also like source material and not just something asking me to assume something is what they say it is...(not referring to you Wii-rulez, but the person who created these images)

I'm guessing they were just showing the worst of the worst.
I was reading the comments on the page, and I laughed when I read one of the posts saying "Since when did the UK become Europe?"
where was that?
Uh...newsflash everybody, but the PS3 sold like crazy at launch here too. Every new console does. It doesn't mean anything until supply meets demand, thats when you can get a better idea of how its performing.
News Flashes don't go over well is the PS3 area, people are drawn to speculation Wink
