Anyone hoping to score a real life, wrist-mounted, smartphone-powered Pip-Boy as part of the limited edition Fallout 4 package first announced at E3 had better try to snag one of the last shipments filtering into stores now. That's because the factory making them literally can not make any more, according to Bethesda Marketing Vice President Pete Hines.
Hines told GameSpot that the company has tried to make as many of the limited editions as it could, responding to demand that made the first two waves of shipments sell out almost immediately at major retailers. The problem, it seems, is that the factories producing the plastic enclosures are absolutely at capacity.
"We reached a point where we'd go back to the factories and they were like, 'Guys, this is it, sorry. This is as long as we can run the lines and as many of them as we can make,'" Hines told GameSpot. "We'd go back to [the factories] and say, 'Demand for this is insane, we've got to make more.' And they'd move other projects off or shift stuff to other factories and it just came to [them telling Bethesda], 'Final answer: sorry, this is as many as we can make.' And we sold every single one of those that we could."
