The $15,000 a year pay raise, and the 20% profit sharing had something to do with it.

Even if you where there at 5:00AM and waited till 10:00AM it was not early enough to get a pre order for ether a PS3 OR a Wii.

I expected to still be able to get a Wii preorder but even the Wii seems to be super popular.

City Centre EB only had 6 PS3s for pre order. 6 ! That is fewer quantities than the impossible to get 360 was when released.

"The Wait" -- PS3 ad shows what they can't offer in substance they can make up for in style

"I'd like to know exactly who is behind this ad. Oh, wow, this ad is so mysterious and now I am intrigued. They totally convinced me to fork over $600+ dollars for their console with that amazingly persuasive TV spot. Yeah, ok. Sony blows. I'm getting a Wii, for sure. I think Nintendo actually understands that people HAVE LIVES OUTSIDE GAMING and that most people don't want to throw away hundreds and hundreds of dollars into video games."

Weirdly Sony hasn't really spent any money on TV advertising (so far as I have seen). Has anyone else noticed this?

Shayne · October 17, 2006, 04:16:46 PM

I dont think they need to. The first batch will sell, and many batches after that, seems like a waste of advertising cash

Lazybones · October 17, 2006, 04:51:45 PM

More like the first batch HAS sold.. I don't think they have many more than what was offered for preorder.

I think this explains everything.

hehe, I saw that one.. It will be interesting to see if that is what happens.

Tom · October 17, 2006, 05:16:12 PM

It already has

There was 6 PS3s, and N Wii's.

Not that hard to repackage a Gamecube

Nintento is going to make Sony and Microsoft look foolish in the short term, that is for certain.

Tom · October 17, 2006, 05:26:59 PM

Its not EXACTLY a game cube

though it is evolutionary, instead of the "normal" revolutionary.
