| WereKitten said: @Nightsurge You answered the wrong post, read my previous one. The NextBox won't make up for the loss of selling PS3 software for years after its inception, and it will take its market mostly out of the 360's. With the PS2 end of line, there will be no rational reason to entirely cut one out of three of the big console lines. |
But the PS3 will be cut first based on shelf space. The NextBox would more than makeup for any loss in PS3 software sales, that and the 360, Wii, and Wii 2. Retailers cannot support all the shelving space and especially given the drastic situation in the US. The PS3 would be discontinued there because of lack of shelf space and it would have the lowest software sales even when compared to the 360 and Wii after their counterparts are released.
Basically if retailers followed what you are proposing, we would still have PS1s, N64s, Gamecubes, and original Xboxes for sale....
