For what it's worth, this past Sunday, I was contemplating purchasing a Nintendo DS ( I still plan on purchasing one eventually). However, since I work a full-time, 9am-5pm job, I really didn't have the spare time to scour all the Best Buys and Targets in NYC looking for a store that had a DS in stock. So just for kicks I browsed the GA forums, when a GA poster, posted some new Japanese PSP commercials. I downloaded all of them, and after viewing the one that displayed Ridge Racers in motion, I was sold. What can I say? I'm a hardcore Ridge Racer fan.
In any case, I placed my Japanese PSP pre-order with Play-Asia.com. This will be the first time I've done business with them, however, I hear they're reputable. They were they only online retailer I could find (this was Sunday) that actually accepted pre-orders for the PSP. So I placed my pre-order for the system (@$220) and Ridge Racers (@$50). I figured, what the hell, this is my best chance, since they'd probably be near impossible to obtain at launch.
Today, I check online for some PSP news, and I read that they're sold out all over the place. From every retailer on the net, to all the brick-and-mortar stores in Japan. I check Play-Asia, and it's the same story. Talk about perfect timing. Is anyone else grabbing, or trying to grab an import?
PS: Sorry for the lengthy post, but I seldom post here.
