VIDEO GAMES: PS3 launches and insanity reigns
I don't see why Sony couldn't have priced their system at $1000 to begin with, at the current $600 price tage they are losing over $200 per unit. The only people making money are the asses who are selling thwe systems on ebay, currently getting twice the price of what they paid. But that doesn't say much for the idiots who are willing to fork out the extra dough to pay for them.
It has been reported that alot more people were just buying the PS3 so that they could make money reselling it. Where as it looks as though the Wii, which didn't completely sell out at all locations until late Sunday, is going to gamers. Well it is less profitable currently only making $200 over it's shelf price.
Just wait until the storm dies down. It is going to be near impossible to get hold of a PS3 before Xmas. Sony just aren't releasing enough systems, they've pushed out only 400,000 compared to 1 million Wiis in the marketplace. And Nintendo hope to make a push upto the holiday with another million or so reaching users.
Or you could just wait five years, when the Ps3, like the PS2 now, will be just getting into it's stride and that is when they will release the next-next-gen systems.
