The news of increases sales from the price cuts are only step one, imho. This is a dynamic situation, and the success of Nintendo's first party can't be ignored by either console maker. A really strong first party slate will equal success. In an analogy for a different industry, Marvel's position for years was to rely on outside studios to make their IP into films...they shifted and deliver Iron Man an TIH...Companies are in this to make money, and I know the logic behind going to outside developers....lower risk and less overhead, but the rewards for doing it right are HUGE...see Nintendo.
