So you dont think the ps3 will sell at 299? |
Considering it would probably be 2010* before it gets down to $299 it would have a nice boost but not a crazy long term effect with both the 360 and Wii still considerably cheaper. And the added value of BR keeps diminishing as standalone prices drop. They're already below $200 at certain places this year. By late 2009 we'll definitely have BR players at $99 price points.
*They can't do a $100 price drop next year without massive losses that would enrage shareholders and threaten to sink the games division once and for all.
That's just crazy to comprehend isn't it? The 360 core launched at $300 and the Wii launched at $250. We're debating if the PS3 could get down to $300 3-4 years after launch!

EDIT: LOL I just saw in the end of december 09 thread you theorized a possible "$100 or more" price cut in 09. If Sony decided to cut the price more than a $100 they wouldn't just be selling the PS3 they'd be looking to sell their company off to anybody willing to buy.
