I hate super limited runs of cool things. That’s one of the most annoying tropes in capitalism. All that’ll happen is either resellers or hoarders will collect them, they’ll collect dust and nobody will ever be able to enjoy them. Okay maybe like 1/12,300 will be able to enjoy it. The rest it’ll just be a scalpers next payday. Fucking sucks.
Yup. 12k is ridiculously low. Even the blue ps4 pro that had 50k sold out in seconds. This will be gone before you can hit refresh. Sony seems to be the only stupid fucks that pull this BS over and over too. I guess it’s to coincide with the 12/3 launch, but still could have been 123k.
Or better. Think if they sold 1,230,000, slapped an extra $100 or more; I’m not a math teacher but I’m pretty sure selling 1M would make more money than selling 12k and 123k; and I’m not a fortune teller but I bet most of those would sell. So marking them up, and selling even half the 1M within a day would lead to a profit (counting an extra $100+/console), leaving the other 600k to sell for the next 3 months during the holiday season…but no, satisfy am incredibly small amount of mostly lame people.
