Give some credit to Sony ppl; at least the lose money in order to make you buy the console, whereas Nintendo steals from you in open sight. |
lol, steals from you? lol. lol. i think it's standard to sell things for more than it costs to make them to make a profit. not everyone uses the loss-lead model. |
When you sell older technology ( processin-wise ) for an insanely high price, you're stealing. I once read in a magazine ( NGamer UK) that Nintendo ( and in particular Shigeru-san) wanted to price Wii at about 100$ but two factors contributed to the high pricepoint: 1) High cost parts ( Flash memory etc) 2) Big-chain retailers complaining about the low-margin profit from each unit sold. |
Holy shit!!! Coca Cola has been selling me their old ass classic formula for years and has been making profit. Those damn crooks. Funny how neither the PS3 nor the 360 has that old motion control technology and yet charges only a meager $499 and $349, respectively. I once read on a napkin (McDonald's) that Sony wanted the PS3 to be $100 dollars too, but several factors contributed to the high pricepoint: 1) Blu-Ray Drive 2) Cell 3) what was your point again? |
Pure freakin genius, that is so hilarious!!!
But, I do have to agree that Sony is trying to do all that they can do to get people to buy the console. I believe that this will show that sony does care and maybe push some consoles.
