PS4 sells out in Japan within minutes...

http://www.dualshockers.com/2013/10/04/the-ps4-sells-out-faster-than-hotcakes-at-all-major-japanese-retailers-in-most-cases-within-minutes/

"This morning between 7 and 7:30 AM local time the floodgates for preorders of the PS4 opened on most Japanese major retail websites. How fast did it sell out? Very, Very Fast."

PS4 will own Japan in the home console war. In other news water is wet...

Sony will maintain their home base while reclaiming the US from Microsoft. Not looking good for lems.

Wow. I can't wait to play the Japan sales figures. Who needs games?

sheens: we never play sales.

How many units were available for pre-order? 50K? Same thing happened with the PS4 and XB1 as well once the preorder doors opened. :lol:

I don't see this being a big deal, especially since Japan is the smallest market of the 3.

I doubt Sony will have the U.S. for long. Once Halo 5 & Titanfall is released and XBox One gets a price cut, the sales will easily shift in Microsoft favor.

Wishful thinking there. I guess you think inFAMOUS and The Order will be only PS4 exclusives in 2014?

X1 did not sell out immediately in the US...the PS4 did though.

Xbox One sold out slower than PS4 in the US despite having less units allocated.

WilliamRLBaker

short sighted comment.

The console that has the largest amount of sales in Japan with get the largest amount of support from japanese developers, that means the most ambistious and high quality JRPGs. (maybe not your thing, but it is a HUGE factor to alot of people)

SDC can't be stopped. :cool:

Who cares about Consoles in Japan. They all buy Handhelds in that Country. 

[QUOTE="StrongBlackVine"]

[QUOTE="Jakandsigz"] Yeah it did. You do realize there are more than one source to pre-order the PS4 and the Xone from right? Their own store sold out for a bit before they reopened.Jakandsigz

X1 Day One Edition did not sell out on Amazon day one....

Jumping conclusions, I see.

[QUOTE="Evo_nine"]

[QUOTE="kinectthedots"]Japan makes some of the best game of the generation, they are a huge factor. Or did you forget that the only exclusive game to receive a perfect 10/10 score and win GOTY was a Japanese made game...Oh and the other Exclusive game to receive a perfect 10/10 score was also a Japanese game?
