I see your point, but you really can't even ask that question yet, that's my point. It's not fair. By the time the Wii drops its price the market will be a lot different than it will now.

Think console saturation, games coming out, etc. It's like asking what the world will be like in 2020.


Seriously if you read my post it makes a lot more sense what I am trying to say. The point is that people are talking about long term sales right now, and in those discussions everyone discounts or completely ignores the fact that Nintendo has plenty of price cut, bundle, and incentive options in their arsenal simply because they have not had to worry about a price drop.

So I have to ask, why can't we ask these questions and talk about thes topics? Why isn't it fair? The whole point of asking the question is to foster insightful discussion and try to determine what the differences in the market will be and how Nintendo can respond to its position in that market.

You are of course free to choose not to speculate on the matter but it doesn't stop the rest of us who are interested in it from doing so.

PS - I certainly hope someone is thinking about what the world will be like in 2020, I don't like the idea of just flitting about with a "where we end up is where we end up" attitude.


 Obviously I'm not stating my point well enough, which I suppose is just lazy on my part.

It's not that I mind talking about it, but the context in which it's being discussed is being talked about almost in a "if it happened tomorrow" type thing, and all I'm saying, is that the market will be a lot different by the time the Wii has a price cut as opposed to tomorrow.

Of course tomorrow Nintendo could announce a price cut and this post will be blown all to hell, but I guess that's the risk I take. :-p
