That would be the correct number of sales of the 199$ SKU (IF this 75% is sold under 200 dollars-phrase turns out to be true) |
The thing is, you only get 75% of your sales at that price point if you drop the price at the right time.... if the PS3 doesn't get to that price for another 2 years it won't even have 50% of it's sales under $200.... similarly all Nintendo consoles prior to the Wii have been priced at $199 at launch, which means they get 100% of sales below $200.
It's a BS statistic that Pachter announced.
