Items over 1000 dollars are "luxury" items, and HDTVs sell the PS3 as good as any game, thus, this recession is hurting the PS3's expansion into the market at a vital time.

 

I never did understand the whole, more HDTV equal more HD system sold. As far as I know, Japan got the highest penetration rate of both Blue Ray and HDTV, yet the HD system get there ass raped even harder there than in the rest of the world.

They're not buying them for the HD part.

Its a SPACE issue. Notice how small the Wii is?

 

 

 well that makes it seem much more simple ; )
