System Shortages?!?!?!

Ok so for about the last month now I have watched the world turn, and I have come to the realization that gaming companies will not learn from either their own or their competitors mistakes. I work retail, and I know first hand how many people everyday we have to turn away due to the unavailability of both the Wii and PS3.

Did we not just go through this with the Xbox 360? Did we not go through this with the PS2? In fact when was the last time any gaming company came out with a system where they didn't have mass shortages? These poignant questions are ones that I thought would come up when the 3 titans of the gaming world were planning the launch of their next gen systems. But alas, Johnny Negativity was asleep at the wheel and became optimistic about their ability to make very few systems...What, did they think that there wasn't going to be a demand for the PS3?! Come on the thing is fricken sweet...its hefty price tag aside, it supports blue ray media as well as some sick HD games. The person that decided to only put a limited amount into production should be punched in the eyes and then have a dwarf from WoW come dump on his chest...and of course I mean this in the most endearing way possible.

So it is with this anger inside my heart that I say, Sony, if you deliver a PS3 to my house free of charge all will be forgiven. I kid you not, I am willing to bury the hatchet with this small token of good will on your part.

Anyways regardless of this I press on with my life with high hopes for the rest of this New Year and hope all visions of the gaming horizon will be bright.
