PlayStation 4 'starting to sell out'
Sony's PlayStation 4 was launched in the UK at midnight and is already "starting to sell out".
Fans camped overnight for a chance to get their hands on one of the consoles.
The first-come first-served launch was considered one of the only ways for people to get hold of a console before Christmas.
Amazon said customers who had not pre-ordered before 13 November would not receive a console in time for Christmas.
The UK launch comes two weeks after the PS4 was launched in the US and a week after Microsoft's Xbox One was launched worldwide. Both consoles sold over a million in the first 24 hours.
In a statement to the BBC a Sony spokesman said: "We are starting to sell out - very rapidly but [we] will continue to work with all parts of the supply chain including our partners at retail to get more, as and when we can."
The company said it was facing "unprecedented" demand and it would be setting up a stock-tracker website to help customers find "those elusive units".
