It hasn’t been on the market long, but it seems that Sony in Japan has already stopped production of the PSX.
According to Japanese weekly magazine Shukan Gendai, Sony’s HDD/DVD Recorder and PlayStation 2 media system stopped production at the beginning of April.
In response to the magazine, Sony Electronics’ public relations spokesman confirmed that production has ceased, and that production will resume depending on how the current inventory sells.
‘Depending on demand [for the PSX], we will resume production when necessary,’ said a spokesman. ‘We are currently in the process of adjusting the inventory and assessing when to resume production.’
Although Sony projected that one million PSXs would ship by the end of 2004, Japanese market analysts were skeptical, with some saying that the system was a ‘publicity stunt’ that would ‘sell well for a month or two.’
