Eva, the PS3 is sold out because the number of units Sony has is TINY, in fact Sony has launched the PS3 in two countries, the US and Japan. Nintendo has launched Wii in one country, the US. And Nintendo has sold 3 times more Wii's than the PS3. The reason for this is because demand for the two consoles is pretty much even, but Nintendo was able to make more units than Sony. MUCH more units, and by the end of the year when Sony has said they will product 1 million PS3's, which is doubtful, Nintendo will have 4 million Wii's... and don't forget, Wii is sold out too and the general opinion of people who buy it who are not hardcore gamers is that it's better value. You get the console and you get Wii Sports.

Sold out? You've just been suckered in by a very old marketting technique. Also take into account that everyone who is that interested in an electronic device like this will be the first ones to buy it. The PS3 targets techheads and those who have pretty much dedicated themselves to electronics and related products. Launch lines for the PS3 were filled with people who matched this demographic. Also take into account that these people knew about the PS3 for years and had time to prepare. Not many average joes in that crowd with a wife and two kids with bills to pay and having to take little johnny to the doctor tomorrow morning.

I underestimate how much money people make? No I don't, I just take into account the fact that there is more to this world than videogames and anime.
