Wouldn't Microsoft hold off any pricecut until Natal launch?
It seems the logical thing to do.
Instead of taking a risk and just launching Natal, a pricedrop on all 360's would give tons of interest and would be sure to give natal a perfect launch.

 

For this reason I don't think there will be a price cut at all, even when Natal launches, or if there is one it will be minor. 

They can't drop the price now and then raise it back up next year when every console comes with Natal, so they will keep the price the same but include Natal.  I guess it depends on how much each Natal camera costs Microsoft.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
