It stayed in Japan and it was in fact too expensive to grab a mainstream market.

And of course, the big question is, does the PS3 have a similar fate?   :o

Maybe, I'm sure as heck not buying one.

Me too, looks as if I will get a PS3 after the PS4 (or 5) hits the streets and I can get one at a thrift store.
I waited a long time to upgrade from the PS1 to PS2.

Same here. But still I *KNOW* I will be crying like a baby once Devil May Cry 4 and Metal Gear Solid 4 are out and I can't play it.

I have Colony Wars, but it's the German PAL version so the manual is in German and the back cover, too. I suppose that doesn't help you. But if you can't find it elsewhere or become tired of searching I'd love to help you out.

Well, once I get home again, I plan to upload the N64 labels/manuals that I have that we are missing, upload all my PS2 covers, then get started on scanning the covers/manuals for my PSX games. (That will take the longest)

None of my friends is crazy enough to spend 599€ (~ $750) on a game console. Hell, one of my friends just bought a high end computer and spend less than that :) But I'll definitely try it out in a gamestore once the PS3 has games that are worth playing.

I want one for 2 reasons ....

1. It's still going to be the cheapest way to get HD movies on Blu-Ray and
2. Gran Turismo HD

Whether those justify the price initially? ..... I dont think so ..... and the wifey would sooner kill me than have yet another console in the house .... especially after I paid $1000 the day PS2 came out only to find it sucked as a DVD player etc and is now available for 1/5th of the original asking price.

Well, I can get away with buying a dreamcast..... my wife really doesn't care about that.....
BUT, I just can't justify buying a PS3...
Blu-Ray or not.....  my DVD's look fine to me on the TV I have.    :)

I don't even think I could convince my wife that it would be worth it for the HD movies.......

EXACTLY.....

and, my wife likes to point out that she does not think I play most of the games I have now.......
(and she points that out ---- a lot)

However, I do play them when the grandkids are over......   and I can beat them in hydro-thunder..... but not mario kart...

ETA: and TheValeman thinks I should buy a dreamcast just to play Hydro-Thunder......

That's what I did with my N64 and Ocarina of Time
