Amazon.com this week set a restock date for Sony Corp.'s Playstation 3 80GB Metal Gear Solid 4 Bundle SKU after holding a sell out status on Mon.
The retailer is taking orders for the item for a pending restock on Aug. 19. The MGS4 PS3 80GB ranked out of the top 20 in Amazon's Video Games division due to unavailability. It previously held a No. 1 rank the week prior. Konami Corp.'s Metal Gear Solid 4 held sales of 774,647 units in June. Metal Gear Solid 4 is the latest entry in the top-selling stealth action franchise. The new title is said to be Snake's final mission in an attempt to foil Liquid Snake and his army. The MGS4 PS3 80GB SKU includes a copy of the Metal Gear Solid 4 game and a Dualshock 3 controller for $499.99. Sony last month recorded a Q1 profit of $50.5 million (5.4 billion yen) profit in its game division compared to a loss of $273.3 million (29.2 billion yen) one year prior.
