GameStop reported its earnings yesterday, but perhaps the biggest news came from its earnings call, in which it said PlayStation 4 demand is already showing signs of strength.
According to GameStop president Tony Bartel, "nearly 900,000 members have already signed up for the PlayStation 4 First to Know List." That list provides all of the latest details on the PlayStation 4 to customers and is usually a strong indicator of the number of people who might preorder the device when it goes on sale in the fourth quarter.
Bartel went on to tell investors that at this point, his company is expecting demand for Sony's console to outpace supply.
"Although we have been given no official numbers by Sony, we do believe that demand will far outpace the supply of this product during the launch window."
