There would still have been plenty of PS3’s at launch even if walmart employees snagged them 
. I mean we can assume 1 walmart employee would have wanted it and then 3 customers.

I actually like the PS3 but since I have a 360, Wii, and gaming PC, I have no need to get it. Almost beat MGS4 on my friends PS3 and thats the main game that I wanted to play that is exclusive!
If the PS3 had been cheaper at the time I bought my 360 I would have bought it. /shrug.
