This morning major retailers like Bic Camera and Sofmap passed out raffle tickets between 9am and 10am with winners announced starting at noon. Those lucky folks could then purchase the PlayStation VR between 12pm and 4pm.
Heres how the raffle results were posted at the Sofmap in Akihabara.
Folks holding these numbers were able to buy the PSVR. That means that not everyone who waited was able to get the headset.
More amazing is that in Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo, people started lining up last night!
Thought this was thread worthy.
Right now, Sony has production issues and can't stock the PSVR well enough. Because of that, I don't think we can safely say whether the PSVR is a success or not right now but seeing people lining up for the shipment is crazy.
