Same from India. I wish companies (looking at you too Nintendo) would prioritise more markets. They've got so much market potential to tap. This is where sony shines.
There isn't a single country where the Playstation isn't sold.

India has really bad tarrifs, and Australia's market is so spread out so we're kinda stuck. Oh well, at least the Border Gavaskar started today.

Australias population is in basically 5 cities No reason they can’t have it here in the modern world

Valve is still buthurt from when the aus regulator said they couldn't just write up their own limited warranty. The regulator said you have to follow mandatory aus consumer protection laws and valve cried then closed up shop.

Which is crazy to me because just from a pure moneymaking perspective, India has 1 billion people. I like those odds.

It's a new console. I'm sure V2 will sell in many more markets once they can actually afford that kind of risk.

Haven’t seen the index in Australia yet. Valve are pretty risk averse when it comes to hardware.

Yeah I mean that is also V1

Valve will never sell in Aus again. Their feeling got hurt by the aus consumer protection regulator and they threw a tantrum.

Valve usually select retail partners to handle their sales abroad. I know they use Komodo as their partner in Japan, HK, SK, and Taiwan. They have a partner in Australia for the Valve Index, but it took them two years to get there. Hopefully they get faster at global availability.
