Forums - Gaming Discussion - The Fall Of Sony

Well, when sony is able to do a 100$ price drop do you think it will out sell wii on a regular basis? I know a ps3 would sell more at 300$ but would it sell more than wii at 200$. I dont think so because of kids ages 7 to 11 and one other reason christmas (kids+christmas=sales) and if Im wrong I still am positive that wii will rule the holidays. What do you think of sonys manufacturing cost (800-840$) how long do you think it will take sony to be able to afford a price drop, wii cost only 200$ to manufacture, and I think if Sony could do a price drop they would, because it would be a great investment and if sony could drop the down to 100$ dollers it would out sell the wii by millions, but how many could they manufacture than a month I think sony would only be manufacture about 300,000 thousand a month and this would hurt there sales and if they didnt sell at least 4 games a month they would go under. What do you think of xbox360? I think its doomed the arcade versoin cost 279.99$ and it cant compete with wii, when they brake and you pay 135$ dollers to get a new one from them that cost the company more money since they cost about 350$ to manufacture each time one brakes and its replaced it hurts them more than the consumer and it cant compete with either Nintendo or Sony and its doomed in Japan right now, I think the 360 will last until sony and nintendo do a price drop then its all down hill, I said yesterday that it has about 2 and a half years and the 360 is finished but I might give it 3 maybe but its done in Japan they might go 8-9 more months and I think thats it, Do you think microsoft will make a new console? I dont, someone said they made 24billion dollars yesterday day off the original xbox, thats funny because wikipidia says they lost 4billion, after this I dont think microsoft will make another console, I think microsoft games will be made on all other platforms, and some of this theory is based off The RROD I had two 360 and they broke so if you wont to know there real sales go to the front page and take away one 3rd and thats how many xbox360's are owned roughly thats why every wii and sony owner own 3.5 games and microsoft is on 7.0 but if you multiple d.o.b times 3.5 its the same Finally back to the ps3, ps3 is getting 360 ports if that and as long as the 360 is around its not going to change, same for nintedo with the ps2 but the ps2 will be gone in about a year and a half and thats when it will shine but the ps3 won't shine for about 3 years due to the 360 still being around, and I think the the ps3 should have been HD just like the xbox360 actually I think it should have been a 360 just improved with wifi and built in HDdvd players unlike the 360 then it could have beaten the 360 at the vary beginning with a lower cost and the brand name sony, and it would have been around the same price and it wouldn't matter if they were 360 ports because it would have only been as graphically capable as the 360 just more built in and more reliable with a lower failure rate and a less expensive cost with and full BW Capability.

Well, I forced myself to read it, and was thoroughly disappointed.



 

 

PS3 will finish second this gen, its too late for it to catch the Wii. I think a price cut will definitely boost sales though. How much is uncertain.

If the PS3 anywhere near the price range as the Wii, I would have got that instead.

Lets just enjoy our consles man... no point of predicting doom for one of them unless you are not having fun with it and this is simply not true for either of the 3 consoles.

So many better threads on this topic have been done that its kind of hard to get a good argument going...

You got it all wrong. It's the other way around. The high attach rate of the X360 proves that there can't be so many RRODs that people claim (like the insane number of 1/3 like you used here yourself). The more failed consoles you have out there, the more the attach rate drops.



Dude read a few lines under wikipedia the ps3 does not cost "800-840$" to manu anymore Sony way able to cut the price in half. Damnit you're not even gonna read this post r u?

 You do know that you can send your xbox to microsoft for a free repair right?  How does RROD lower attach rate when the problem can be fixed?  It's just that 3 years is too short.  The failure rate is at 1/3.



"Why isn't samus in a mario kart game?"

Actually if every 360 sold suddenly had a RROD and Microsoft counted each RROD as a negative sale the attach rate of the 360 would reach infinity !!!!!!!!!!!!



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
