So what ?

If what you want is to beat out the competition and "win the console war", then so nothing. However if Nintendo had any chance of returning the phenomenon it was, then it would need to fight to maintain it's value and price, and not concede it at when disinterest begins to set in.

 

Ugh... don't you see the advantage of lowering the console to 199? Talk all you want about software, creating value, or blue ocean strategy but good god just realize that regardless of what Nintendo does, some people simply won't buy one until it hits a certain point. Saying that Nintendo can produce software to make the Wii stay at $249 forever is beyond delusional. Nintendo had an amazing run at their launch price.
