That's a more correct term. 

The DS has the best, and biggest portable software library that is attractive to the masses.  It constantly outsells the PSP on a weekly basis, and Apple has about 75 million or so iPhone 3Gs to sell to even be in the same territory.

I just don't see the point in this.  Raising the price is never extremely effective.

Depends on the item. 

There's a famous anecdote about a large automotive maker that was having a terrible time selling its products and no matter how low the price became, no one would buy the vehicles.  What did they do?  They jacked the price way up and rebranded.  Sales went way up.  Turns out people weren't buying because they viewed price as a measure of quality.
