You do not need two for any reason. Most people will pretend to not open one (which is still ridiculous in my opinion. If a majority cannot get one, you do not need two) but instead they will just scalp it on eBay.
Also, how about not showing the product on the official PlayStation blog? I mean, seriously, that just adding fuel to the fire. It would sell out very fast even without that blog post. Now people who don't even follow Limited Run products are trying to get one.

Of couse, it's the whole "get in on the newest fad to look cool" epedemic that social media has caused. Hell, if Playstation has it on thier blog then it must be something cool that I MUST HAVE. lol. Fuck I'll buy it now and figure out what the hell it was later.
