It's quite a sad precedent Nintendo seem to have set for future systems by slashing the price of the 3DS so early.  Now anything that doesn't take off within the first 6+ months needs a price cut and nothing else.  Not games, not bundles, not features, just a price cut, because that's what the 3DS did.  Ugh.

I don't know why you think a Price Cut won't help, but whatever.

It needs to happen.

Why does it "need" to happen? Did you not take in anything I wrote? Do you disagree with it?

On top of what I've already written about software, Sony seems to be just about breaking even on each unit, or taking a small loss, why take an even bigger loss on each one when there's clearly a lot of software coming down the line that has big selling potential (for the software itself, that makes money, and the system)?
