PS3 JPN LAUNCH: Ashcraft Gets His

It's somewhere between 9-9:30am, and I'm getting on a train. Stop by home, drop off my laptop, say hi to the fam, think about collapsing, grab the car keys and drive.

GEO is a short ride from my house. The parking garage isn't crowded, but the front of the store is. There's about 15 people. All for the PS3?

I see a store staffer, whom I bugged earlier about my pre-order.

"Good morning."
"Hey."
"I think you'll be alright."
Oh?

The doors open, and we pile in. Two PS3s are purchased right away (including mine). The other customers snap up DS Lites. A few PLAYSTATION 3 reserves are made. This store received 7 PS3s total. The others will be held a week for those who reserved them.

59,800 yen later, the clerk hands me a blue bag with a PLAYSTATION 3 packaged up inside. My first impression? It's heavy.
