If you’re the melodramatic type, I’d leave the room. If Desperate Housewives starting 10 minutes late leaves you with a heart attack, don’t read on. Especially if you hold a special place in your heart for Sony.

Those lovely folks over at Kotaku have caught wind of the PS3’s launch in Australia. Namely, the number of units we could be receiving on launch day. The number?

11,000.

Yeah. Considering the 20 million Australians living here, doesn’t that number seem a bit… short? Although the 11,000 PS3’s is a rumour, that’s still a tiny number. I knew Australia would be receiving a small number… but come on Sony, at least satisfy your fans.

I realise numbers are short, money is tight and CEO’s are bullshit artists, but don’t go looping us in with the treatment Europe receives. We gave birth to Jennifer Hawkins, after all - don’t make us take her away.

Maybe Sony would be better off sending those 11,000 PS3’s to where the entire populace can be happy.

Note: In the article I’ve assumed a large group of Australians care for the PS3. This was used for comic effect.
