Of course it wont, half the sales of the wii come from people that bought it because the other 2 were to expensive.

 

Where did you get that statistic?
Well I read an article on yahoo saying something about parents buying their kids wiis for the price on holidays.

 

 

Sorry for coming on rude, but that doesn't exacly mean half of all Wii buyers.

And Griffen, "good" 3rd party games is entirely based on taste. Boom Blox may be better then GTA4 in the opinion of some multi-console owners, and vice-versa.
Would people buy a wii over a ps3 or 360 if they were all 250?

 

 

Yes, Seriously dude the price is not a factor. Why else would sales of xbox NOT increase despite them being priced below or at the same price as the Wii in certain regions. People want something different, unique and new, not the same old system that does the same damn things their last system did.

The Wii will drop its price before PS3 hits anything near $300, if that occurs at all within 2 yrs. Which it won't.

 



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
