What Does a $199 Xbox Really Mean? Is this the Beginning or the End?

The hardcore said that price was the only factor Wii was selling so well over the Ps3... Sorry but 360 has other issues than just price (especially since it was cheaper than the ps3 and selling less anyways). It would make more of a difference with Wii vs HD if this were the Ps3 going head to head with the wii than the 360.

It might well be, but the gap's just too wide for that to ever happen. I'm sure the Blu-Ray alone would make it impossible. But it would be interesting to see.

Myself, I wouldn't take the PS3 over my Wii at any price. But sometimes in my dreams I see the two getting married and producing a Motion Plus machine with all the power of a PS3 and costing $249. It would be called the SWiiP (for Super Wii Playstation and pronounced SweetPea).

Don't suppose I'd better hold my breath waiting.

 

It would be a crybaby gramps, lol.
