New PlayStation 4 owners who just bought their console in North America during the special midnight launches are reporting different errors when trying to connect the next-gen console to the PlayStation Network, including codes E-80E80034 and NW-31453-6.

The PS4 is launching as we speak across North America and lots of different stores are organizing midnight launches for the next-gen console.

Now, new owners of the device are trying to connect their console to the PlayStation Network in order to download the required 1.50 firmware update but quite a few are encountering problems with the online service.

More specifically, they're met with error messages containing the codes E-80E80034 and NW-31453-6, which both stop the login process into the PSN.

Sony offers no details about these two errors, according to GameInformer, so it's unclear just why they're happening.
