I could have had a Playstation 3!

They were released in Japan this morning. And about 10 minutes after that they all disappeared. I actually got a chance to play one yesterday for the first time. They had a booth set up in the Toys R Us store and it was merely a matter of picking up the little kid in front of me by the scruff of the neck and throwing him out of the way. I went to the Toys R Us during my lunchbreak to play it. Apparently they're going to be impossible to find when they're released in North America when they come out in December. And to think if only I had a little patience, a warm jacket and 60,000 yen in my pocket then I could have had one too! At five o'clock in the afternoon there was one guy in line sitting outside of the store. When I left work at 9pm that evening there were a grand total of three people in line. So I suppose if I had have sat my but down at that time and waited I could now be bragging about being the first Canadian to own a PS3. Oh well, I'm sure there'll be plenty more available in three years time when the price has dropped off enough to something I'm willing to pay.
