The nostalgia factor would be much higher for me if the system could actually play original Playstation game discs. Shame the 20th anniversary didn't occur during the PS3 era since the console can play PS1 discs.

At least the press is getting some. "For the players".

I don't really want one, but I can't deny feeling a bit jealous of those who do get their hands on one.

You just cut to the core of this entire debacle. Finally.

 

[pelican]

You know what gets me?

Giving the console to media outlets. Wrong, wrong and wrong.

That dude that made the PS4 hard drive covers with the PS1/PS2 mock-ups was a genius, I'd take a freakin fancy hard drive cover even. But I agree, being able to get one of these limited systems easily at a store would be great too.
I bought 5 Xbox 360s last gen(due to failure), and if my PS4 dies I'll just go buy another one too. Hopefully there'll be gray ones easily available by then.

edit-THIS ONE!

The GAF edition looks cool:

Was there any response?

No but if I get one I'll let everyone know.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Maybe next time you go to the PS Experience, I guess.

That controller can make them big money. Sucks I can't preorder this on Amazon.

Is there a new link on this? How they plan to sell it world wide?

Oh I guess the North America distribution hasn't been announced.

 

[Lombax]

I am going to do everything I can tomorrow to try and get one of these, just so its out of the hands of a scalper.

 

[Occam]

So Non-Americans didn't even get a chance to buy one in Sony's online store; US-delivery only.

WTF, Sony.

There are currently 324 auctions for 20th Anniversary PS4s on ebay alone (=more than most countries will receive in total). All by Americans, who were the only ones who had a chance to buy these consoles so far.

Well done, Sony, well done!

A fairer way to would have been to GLOBALLY select PSN members (one max per registered PlayStation device) at random and then send out invitations to buy the 20th Anniversary edition. Giving only some people a chance to buy these consoles directly simply because they happen to live in the right place is extremely unfair.
