Wie Microsoft Japan bekannt gibt, ist die Xbox 360 in Japan ausverkauft. Grund dafür sind die hohen Verkaufszahlen durch den Release von Tales of Vesperia, welche die eigenen Verkaufsprognosen übertroffen haben.
Microsoft entschuldigt sich deshalb bei Kunden, Händlern und Geschäftspartnern und verspricht, im September neue Konsolen zu liefern.
[quote]To all customers
We truly thank you for all your patronage in the past.
Currently, the Xbox 360 is sold out, and retailers are unable to restock their supply. This is a result of our own sales targets being exceeded by the actual customer sales. We deeply apologize for this inconvenience to our customers, retailers and business partners.
Here at Microsoft, we are moving forward quickly with console production, and plan to ship the standard Xbox 360 model out this September. Furthermore, we will sequentially be shipping out the Elite and the Arcade models. We ask that you please patiently wait until the console is shipped.
We truly thank you for your patronage hereafter.
