Well it is launching here first and this is by far their biggest territory. Like any smart company you put the product where it will sell the most and has the most potential. When its closer to the launches in other regions I am sure more consoles will be shifted there.

Probably got more pre-orders from US.

For the most part it is sold out here as well. At least the deluxe version are.

1 of the largest gaming markets so of course.

Makes sense that the lion's share would go to the US. Canada has 1/10th the population so it's understandable we would get less units. This article kind of fulls under the "Duh" category. And like other posters have said, it's where the largest gaming market is outside of Japan, so again, it's only normal.

It seemed obvious with the us launch being first and Europe confirmed to have limited supply.

I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.

Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.

But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.
