| HappySqurriel said: Why do the same people who assume that the PS3 and XBox 360 are just one major game release and one price reduction away from a massive sales increase, believe that the Wii couldn't maintain its sales even with several big game releases and a price cut? After 30 months on the market, the Wii is (potentially) the longest running console that has never seen a price reduction. If Nintendo reduced the price of the Wii by $50 and/or bundled an additional controller (Wiimote + Nunchuck), created and promoted a greatest hits library (games for $20), released an smaller or colored system, started bundling other/more games, and/or released some big games (new Zelda for example) it is likely that Nintendo would at least maintain their sales level for the next 12 to 24 months ... |
No way. Are you crazy?
The Wii is in big trouble. The low sales in Japan are a strong indicator that it will be dead in the water soon. Old fads like the pet rock, sea monkeys, and the Slinky will soon outsell it. There will be disco dancing all over. Watch.
