It's no secret that the PS4 is very difficult to find right now. While IGN has stated that the PS4 is available on Amazon, retail continues to have a scarce supply of PS4's.
What's surprising is Sony won't be able to keep up with the demand for PS4 until this summer, as stated by Sony to The Wall Street Journal at GDC this year.
This is why I purchased the PS4 at its launch. I didn't want to go through the stress and hassle of going out to retail stores only to find that they don't have the PS4 in stock. Remember the Wii? That was a pain to get back when it was released, and I was lucky I even got one some time early the following year after its original release of 2006. It seems I made the right decision to buy the PS4 when it came out.
It's a shame that the PS4 is not in an abundant supply at retail. I know that there a ton of people who want the PS4 over the Xbox One, and it's easy to see why. It's cheaper and more powerful than the Xbox One.
Of course, I can also see why some people would wait before buying a PS4 or even an Xbox One. Right now, there aren't that many games out for either system. Both systems just recently got their first games worth buying in the forms of Titanfall for the Xbox One and Infamous: Second Son for PS4.
I am glad that gamers won't have to wait to long before having a chance buy a PS4, and let's hope that Sony, Microsoft, and even Nintendo can provide a strong library of games at E3 and beyond.
