1 Million PSP's Confirmed for March 24th Launch
{embed="video-games/dpadz-ads"}Sony seems to have put in some overtime and fixed a potential shortage problem. They have confirmed one million completed PSP units will be available for retail at launch. Sony earlier had said only 1 million in various states of completion would be available for launch.
The recent online stores stopping all pre orders only added to PSP fans concern that a shortage would bear it’s fangs when the unit comes on sale here. Still, I wonder if there will be somewhat of a shortage in that some stores will be sold out after March.
Sony has not mentioned how many they are currently manufacturing per month. Having sold over 1.2 million currently Sony maintains they will sell 3 million units by their fiscal year end at the end of March.
Personally, I’m going to try to hold out till the next rev comes out with the longer lasting battery.
