The Premium now costs 50% more than the Arcade at the relative prices of $200 for the Arcade and $300 for the Premium. Wheres before the premium cost 25% more than the Arcade at the relative prices of $280 for the Arcade and $350 for the premium. The difference between them now is quite clear, the Arcade is of unquestionable value when compared, well to anything. |
Yup. It'll be very interesting to see how Microsoft services the Arcade stocks in the US stores. When it launched last year, it sold out pretty quickly, and seems to of shifted consumer interest in the Xbox 360...I'm not saying Aracde is selling better than the Pro/Premium, but I doubt it's as low as the 10% that has been quoted for LTD sales when the Core was the available unit.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
