Apparently, the Japanese market likes a little [Please register to see this link. ] when it comes to their gaming systems. Case in point, the new SatinSilver 40GB PS3 which will be hitting Japan’s shores on March 6th. While it comes with the standard SIXAXIS wireless controller, a matching DUALSHOCK 3 can be bought separately.
As if this was not news enough, also on March 3th Japanese consumers will also have the option to purchase their sexy new silver PS3 as a bundle with upcoming PS3 exclusive Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan! (aka Yakuza 3), although this particular bundle will be limited to only a thousand units.Once again, cool things always seem to happen in other markets, well, at least before we get them. North America is like the red-headed stepchild of the gaming world apparently.

lol they think america gets a bum deal. Try living in Australia or alot of europe, then you will no what its like to get shafted by the gaming industy. We pay more for game, pay more for consoles, we have to wait longer for games to get here as well. We still havent even got rock band yet, still have a few more months wait.

The cost to ship it to australia wouldnt be worth it mate. Just to ship it would add a couple of extra $100's onto the price. Thanks anyway mate.
