Sony to launch the PS3 outside Japan first?
Apparently Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. president Kaz Hirai was quoted in the press as saying the company hadn't yet firmly decided to go the traditional route by launching the PS3 first in Japan. He said they hadn't decided in which "territory" they'll debut the console, and even hinted that they might choose to unleash it on multiple markets at once. If they do go this route, it would be the first time Sony has debuted a console outside of Japan. Maybe they'll try to make it up to the European market for dissing them on the launch date of the PSP and launch the PS3 there first. Hey, may as well dream.
