PlayStation 3 DualShock 3 Gets Dated Again

Australia and New Zealand have joined the list of countries that know when they will get the rumbling DualShock 3 controller for the PlayStation 3.

Australia will get the controller on April 24th for a price of AU $99.95 (£47). New Zealand will follow on May 9th with a price of NZ $109.95 (£52).

So, where is Europe's? We contacted Sony and were told, "Australia is in the unique situation that they have completely sold out of Sixaxis controllers and as a result we have had to decide on the best way to ensure consumers in Australia can buy controllers for PS3.

"We felt that due to production capacity of DS3 being just enough to cater for Australia; we were in a position to replace Sixaxis in Australia with DS3".

Any news for us, we asked? "We have yet to announce a release date for DualShock3 in Europe".

North America got rumble for the PS3 earlier this month. Japan got its rumble back in November last year.

So, we'll just keep waiting, twiddling out thumbs with nothing juddering beneath them...
