should nintendo do a price cut of 50%,in 3ds ,3ds xl, 2ds ?

yes 49 50.52%
 
no 48 49.48%
 
Total:97

i thinknow that nintendo announced 3ds/xl successors,is urgent to do this price cut in japan and especially  in usa and europe,where they are being released in 2015.If not, current sales would be hurted!here are my suggestions 3dsxl 100$ 3ds 75$ 2ds 65$,this would drive crazy sales,the cheap nintendo ds sold 12.5m in 2011-2013 when 3ds had been released...Also when original 3ds supplies would deplete ,they should discontinue it,just keep 3dsxl as it now makes the 82% of 3ds sales,and the cheaper 2ds!Note: manufacturing cost of 3ds/xl is 100$, of 2ds is 60$

There is no point in cutting the price for 2ds.

The other 2 should phase out, XL though a little later.

3ds: $150
XL: $170



No because then people won't be tempted to but the New line.

well i thought that,but i  disagree,the majority always want an upgraded version of their gadget!as you can see iphone s sales are always bigger than the previous which are cheaper!



Seems fair.

Yea, they should do a price but not by a ridicules amount where they would be losing money...

mmmmm i made a question,just answer to it!do not digress!I know them!do you know that sales 3ds will fall off a cliff in usa and europe, if nintendo do not do a price cut,because everyone will wait the successors...

hahhahahaahaha the crazy sales that my suggestion could drive,would cover them!how much 3ds actually cost?e.g i phone costs 799$ but its hardware actually cost 179$,i ll repeat how much 3ds hardware costs?



$65 for the 2DS if it were cut by 50% and $100 for the XL. I would get it.

I guess they would have to cut the DSi and DS lite in half too then. DSi and XL would be $49.99, and the Lite would be $32.49. That would mean a DS game is the same price as a DS lite. :P



nice
