Sony promising equal PS3 shortages globally

Sony PlayStation 3According to Sony Europe boss David Reeves “The US, Japan and Europe will be equally served, It’s my job to make sure Europe gets equal billing. I can’t specify the numbers but we’ll work hard to ensure that it’s equal.”

Good news for PS3 lovers then? Well maybe, especially when Reeves added, “Europe is on track and I think the third party publishers should recognize that. But for us, we’ll have four to six first party titles at launch.”

CVG quotes him as saying: “Of course the launch is important but we are looking at a long term business plan. It is impractical to believe you can fulfil every single order. But we are going to do the best job we can to deliver what we hope will be a world beating console.”

Looks like Sony will run into exactly the same problems as Microsoft did last Christmas, but at least all major territories will be equally disappointed, if that’s any consolation.
