What percentage of this "mass market" when they go window shopping, swing by the videogame section to see what the price of the PS3 is, and see if the price drops?
In an economy where unemployment went over 8% in the USA, where retirement funds are shrinking, and people are concerned that they may get fired at any minute, do you have a waiting pattern for a console to drop in price? What percentage of people have the price of the PS3 in their mind?
And what would they have it in their mind for? Is it to play BluRay movies? If so, there are cheaper options than the PS3 for that. Is it to play games? The Wii and 360 are cheaper options. And if price was the deciding factor, the 360 would be outselling the Wii at this point.
