The PS4 launches in many other countries later this week, but it might be hard to get one in New Zealand if you didn’t pre-order one.
The PS4 comes out on November 29th, but many of the major retailers in New Zealand are sold out of their first shipments for the console. NZGamer has an update reporting that most shipments are unavailable on launch day. EB Games and Mighty Ape won’t get new stock until 2014. Sony stores themselves won’t get stock until March 2014!
It’s believed retailers The Warehouse, JB Hi Fi, Dick Smith and Noel Leeming might get new PS4 consoles before Christmas. This is unconfirmed however so you might have to check on that if it’s true. Still, you have to order early since there’s a chance second shipments could sell out quickly too.
If you live in New Zealand and want a PS4 early, please check with your local retailer to see if they have stock. Chances are, you may have to wait for the next shipments to arrive.
