I just know they MET THEIR GOALS with the PS3 sales for the fiscal year ending March 31st (which they did focused on reaching it without cutting prices a single cent). I doubt the MS games division was too happy after slashing their prices so aggresively and got the results they got. Those guys are in a world of pain right now TOO, and worst of all their hands are pretty tied for the rest of the year.

 

Obvioulsy cause they lowered them drastically. Something like only 10million Ps3s sold.

And can ppl stop about cutting price. Do you think SONY can afford another price cut?? $200 in two years is alot.

Aggresively, so what did SONY do? SONY slashed their prices because of desperation. Why are they in a world of pain??Hmm outsell the PS3 by 8million, YOY massive increases, high Japan sales...

Firstly i believe that they predicted 10million for the current fiscal yr last yr, so they didn't lower it during the fiscal yr. So obviously they estimated very well. and they survived even after MS lowered price of XBOX drastically.

Secondly Sony launched the PS3 at $200 above the normal launch price of a console. So i think normal price drop schedule of other consoles should not be applied on it. So 

 

I wasn't aware there was a normal launch price of a console? What is this number you speak of and how is it derived?
