PS5

Not sure if this is the right thread for this question, but for those of us that missed the preorders (damn you openserve for my slow connection and my slow refresh speed). Will there be any additional consoles available ANYWHERE else on launch day? I messaged the guys from takealot and they said SA is not on the country list that will be receiving some additional consoles. Is that true?

Bummed that you cant use an external hard drive to store PS5 games, especially given the low storage space available. Was planning on getting a 1TB hard drive and swapping games back and forth. Will now have to look at a SATA SSD cause load times are similar to the internal SSD for backwards compatible PS4 games.

A feature that they will likely include in the near future?

I'm in the same boat man. Doesn't seem like there's going to be stock for a while.

I read on the playstation 5 blog that there will be no physical sales in store for the foreseeable future, and I think it's world wide ( Only pre-orders from distributers )
