Forums - Sales Discussion - US 360 price drop actually makes a US PS3 price drop LESS likely.

but we have to wait and see what difference a price cut makes on the 360

i see your logic neice thread.



You are looking at it from a profitability standpoint and actually are probably right. Sony can not afford more loses on the PS3 the price cut will have to wait until manufactures cost come down for the system



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Your logic makes sense. However, I think the real reason a price drop is unlikely is that sony seems to be more focused on profit than marketshare now. Their heavy focus on developing and marketing first/scond party software provides evidence for this. I think they've pretty much conceded the NA market to M$ and Nintendo.

Conceding the one of the biggest markets NA is a big concession

How much is a PS2 in NA? $100? I still don't think that the people buying a PS2 now, will be buying a current generation console anytime soon.
