Games is just one of many features that makes the PS3 not only the best value ever in the history of this market, but also makes it the single greatest home entertainment box created to date. Sony never was going to let Nintendo run away with the market, and they never will. This year they got the PS3's public image were it needs to be after the rediculous hate last year made the system a product to avoid for many consumers. The rest of this year Sony is first and formost working on profit. They know that a price cut means very little to effect sales at this point in the year, and all it really does is create greater losses. Next year PS3 will finally be at full stride, and things are going to start to change in the industry, and the world of electronics. Prices for Blu-ray will plumit next year as the format breaks into the mainstream. This along with the other price reducing advancments will finally allow Sony to come down to the $299 price point people are so desperate for. Sony took this market from Nintendo, and they never intended to give it back. No one ever wants to give it up, but once it happens there are two choices. One is sit back get pissed and steady the same course, or two accept that you need to change and do what it takes to prove you are still the best. Nintendo took the first option after the N64 lost to PS1, so far Sony has taken the later, and they now moving beyond what they need to do to regain their thrown. |
So you believe the PS3 will outsell the Wii?
