Title: My local Best Buy has 77 PS3s on the sales floor.
Post by: BranDonk Kong on July 29, 2007, 09:04:03 AM
Yes, you read that correctly, seventy-seven. They got at least 12 Wiis this morning (according to the flyer), but sold all of them already. I saw 6 at first, on the shelf and thought "they always have 6", then I saw 2 kids playing GUitar Hero 2 for 360 (whom I later destroyed when I played them), and behind them was a stack of 46 PS3s, I was like "holy shite, that's ridiculous", as I was leaving the same 2 kids were not playing Guitar Hero Rocks the 80s, and behind them, another stack of PS3s, this one had 25. Sony has FAILED. End of story.
Edit - if you want proof 321-768-6840 then 46 for the games department. Melbourne, FL store.

Sony already knows they failed. Besides in 2010 they plan for the PS3 to sell big, it's already part of their strat!

Right, Sony does better every time someone doesn't buy a PS3. They're all secretly genius!

Brandogg, I'm not sure I knew you lived in Melbourne before. I grew up there in the area. First over in Sherwood Park then out in Palm Bay on Ivanhoe off Jupiter. What a red neck area that place has turned into. Ah, the memories of listening to crocs attack cows at night and avoiding rattlesnakes during the day. Quite a difference 25 years makes.

That's pretty cool, bustin. I used to live just west of you off of Glencove in Palm Bay. I live in West Melbourne (which is even more rednecky than Palm Bay - the guy who lives across the street being a prime example) now, right near said Best Buy with all the PS3s. Best Buy was like the biggest thing to happen to this county when it opened 13 years ago or so.

You guys aren't from the real red-necky parts of Florida if you didn't respond to my "RC Cola and a Moon Pie?"

I thought that was a reference to 25 years ago. After all, that's probably the last time I had an RC Cola. Oh, they're still around? How quaint.
I thought red necks have a beer and a twinkie for breakfast . . .

It depends on whether they're Baptist or Methodist.
