I don't think that wii pricecut will do as much as PS3/360 pricecuts.

No it would do a lot like the PS3 price cuts will, a few weeks boosted high and then a fall back, but that is not what Nintendo needs, they need a sustained rise, and that will require software

I don't think so. Wii is already cheaper than PS3 so pricecut won't be as big deal.

So what if Wii is cheaper than PS3, its also overall more in demand than PS3, along ever demand curve there are always those who want the product but aren't willing to pay the current market price

That remains to be seen. Maybe there is more demand for PS3 from now on. Wii sales have been declining for a while now.

No, Wii sales have been declining because of a lack of software, software is way below last year's level, but PS3 didn't see a significant software rise last week with the PS3 hardware sales boost, in fact in NA it dropped 11%, even as hardware took off, this indicates that there isn't a surge in PS3 demand, just a price drop and new SKU excitement



 

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!!  Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
