"We're working very hard with our retail partners to meet consumer interest, but the demand is tremendously high for the PS3 and we expect tight inventory in the coming months," says Seybold.
Overall, the PS3 saw 36 percent growth year-on-year for January, while rival consoles saw a slowdown.
"The strong demand carrying through the holidays was evident and early in the month we [knew] there was going to be limited supply of the PS3 at retail in January," Seybold continued. "We're working closely with the retail channel to meet this demand, but expect tight supply for the coming months."
Amazon currently only allows sales of one PS3 per household, given the shortages.
