The PS3 hasn't even launched in the US yet, and two stores near Kris have already been robbed pre-emptively of stock. I expect similar reports to start occuring across the country in due course...

This is going to be fun.
200,000 units for 'symbolic' launch

Ahead of the launch of the PlayStation 3 in the US, Lazard Capital Markets believes Sony will only be able to ship between 150,000 and 200,000 units to retail shelves.

The figure is half that promised by Ken Kuturagi back in September after the announcement of a delay to the consoles launch in PAL regions.

The Neo Geo Pocket and the Neo Geo Pocket Color were reasonably priced, as were the games (£24.99 for Match of the Millennium).

So not going to hit the 6 mil mark by March then. Wonder how MS is doing with their 10 mil by end of the year?

Does it cost more than it should? Are there only handful of games you can be arsed even looking at? Have the fanboys stapled banners to their backs and advanced in grim platoons to the forum trenches? If the answer to any of these is "yes" then it is next gen.

Maybe in the near future, either from Sony or maybe from third parties, we will release a network storage system that contains multi-terabyte capacity.
It'll probably be released before Windows Live Drive. :roll:

Nope. They've adjusted it from 'before the others launch' or something like that though.
