it's all good c0rd. However jsut because he is wrong about most things doesn't mean he is wrong about everything. I strongly believe, and am backed up by stats that every console sells the majority of its product at the 200-300$ price range.

There are instances where this is not so though, as in the GC and DC but then again both had very stiff competition from the ps2. However, the main point I am talking about is still apparent. The "Value" of the PS2 was much much more than the GC and DC, even though they were all great consoles in my mind.

But you can see really, from the ps2 and ps1 sales drops, sales almost doubled when the price hit 200$ and remained that way for the majority of its life.

yes, in this day and age price cuts are meant to help stay level. But those are lessons learned from recency. If an Ipod was 50$, I can guarantee everyone in america would have one. Again though, it has to do with perceived value. It would be great for an Ipod, but say for a Zune or other player, it just might not make the same impact. That is why your GC analogy fails, because comparitively ps2 out did it in every aspect.
