Hasta La Gadget!

A few days ago, Sony finally released the PlayStation 4 in Japan. A little odd given that Sony is a Japanese company, so you might think that they would target their home market first, but we guess better late than never, right? In any case how did the console do for its opening weekend?

Well according to a report from Famitsu, it seems that the PS4 did extremely well in Japan during its opening weekend and managed to sell over 300,000 units, 322,083 units to be exact. (more…)
