After launch on November the 12th, Sony confirmed that 118,085 consoles were bought in just four days.

Also worth checking out, particularly for those of you who would rather receive boxes for your gaming equipment, is Loot Crate. Loot Crate offers boxes that include everything from top video games to game apparel and is definitely worth looking into.
