No price cut for the Wii and Wii's successor is in progress said Iwata

Nintendo is all about the profit rather then boosting sales.

Rarely will a pricecut actually make you a higher profit then what your already making.

Consider this situation... You sell a game for $50. It costs you 25 to make.

You make a profit of $25 per game and sell 100 to get a profit of 2500

Now say you cut the price % so it's 45 now.

So you make a proft of 20 per game.

You need to sell 125 copies just to break even... so with a 10% pricecut you now need to sell 25% more product just to get the same profit.
