Sony Promises 'Regular' Dualshock Shipments

Sony UK has moved to reassure retailers that it will be providing 'regular' shipments of its new Dualshock 3 Wireless Controller this month – but admitted that it can't guarantee stock for everyone on day one.

Mark Howsen, PlayStation's UK sales director, told MCV: "It's going to be a close call as to whether we can guarantee enough stock for everybody day one, however, we'll be making regular shipments thereafter, in order to satisfy demand."

I don't understand why this has taken so long to arrive in the UK?

I got a couple from Hong Kong a few months ago (the ceramic white ones are DAMN sexy!), they all work fine as they are effectively just Bluetooth devices so why has it taken so long to arrive here in the UK?

After having these my standard Sixaxis hasn't been touched, can't believe how much i'd missed having rumble!!

I would hazzard a guess the delay is likely down to the many European safety laws they would have to pass before being granted the necessary paperwork to start selling them, its not like they've just designed the hardware as you said.

They want to ship as little as possible so they can get rid of the sixaxis stock.
