I could be wrong, but Home and Little Big Planet seem to be products that are designed to (mostly) apeal to casual and non-gamers who would be interested in social gaming experiences ... Now, if these were products on the PS2 or Nintendo DS I could see them being very successful in this market because spending $200 and getting system with a game seems reasonable to a lot of non-gamers ... The PS3 is currently priced as an enthusiast machine and is unlikely going to come down to a mainstream price before either of these products launch; the result is that Little Big Planet is going to have less than impressive sales and will probably not move that many systems. I guess you could think about it this way … Would Brain Training and Nintendogs have been as popular on a $250 system as they were on a $150 system? Probably not, that girl who bought here DS with Nintendogs and later picked up Animal Crossing would have probably seen Nintendogs and thought “That’s coolâ€, checked out the price of the systems and spent her money on something else.
