Is it any wonder when its reasonably priced, ships in about 100 different colours and has loads of good games available to buy which cater for Japanese tastes?
Come on Sony, if you lift your import ban, these figures could double almost overnight, same goes for the software.
I still cant buy Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and guess what, its not on any UK release schedules.....
Idiots.....
