Some may say this should be on the Sony bad business thread but I think it deserves its own thread.

Very good strip!  But thinking about it, I doubt Tretton would mind since he can claim all those who play his fetch game as sold units.

Where My Money!!?

I called around on Saturday when I saw this and came up with 58 units in my area.

Also funny thing, GameStop.com stopped listing if PS3s are in stock at local stores, When I was first doing my count I went onto gamestop.com and put in my zip to see which stores had them in and all the stores came up with 0, but when I called the stores in my area all of them did in fact have multiple units in.

Ah.  Sony Clout in the work.  I bet he wishes he put the bounty on the Wii.

I saw 4 PS3s (two of each flavor) at a local Wal-mart the other night...No Wiis in sight, of course...
