I would take a bigger loss on the system, remove some features, and try to match Microsoft's price as much as possible! Also, I would invest in looking for ways to get more families buying the system. I would try to court third parties to produce more Wii-style games, as well as produce more family friendly games. I would have a HUGE company's resources at my helm, and I wouldn't fail to use those deep pockets to invest in the PS3, and get its sales up! This is now the 3rd year it has been on the market, and to not even be selling 20 million now??? For Sony, that's HORRIBLE! The PS2 took off by this point in its life, and Sony somehow HAS to change their market plan, otherwise they'll have a HUGE hole to climb out of! |
You gotta love how some people think all solutions to a perceived problem have to be short term and immediate. Furthermore you have to love how some people think its by just copying what the leader does that a company will automatically catch up. And to really put the nail in the coffin you have to love how people think they have strategies that heads of large corporations haven't either thought up of or hasn't at some point had someone on their advisory board come up and say "umm see how 360 is having a price cut...? how about we have one too?" And then to assume that those avenues haven't been looked into already... well thats just priceless.
