Playstation Move Demand ShortageSony has admitted that they were short-sighted with the release of the Playstation Move.

The demand for the Wii and Kinect rival has left the company battling to fulfill a global demand.

Speaking to VentureBeat, Sony’s US senior vice president of marketing Peter Dille revealed that it’s going to be a struggle to keep up with the Christmas rush.

“We have a catch-up problem in all three territories that will last until January of February,” he admitted.

Intriguingly, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter has noted that while they be understocked, that doesn’t necessarily reflect astounding sales figures, and hints that the motion controller could have vastly underperformed commercially.

Following a similar situation in previous years, Nintendo are said to be on top of demand for the festive period, although Microsoft have also confessed that snapping a Kinect off the shelves will get increasingly harder in coming weeks.
