Will a Wii price cut send it over 50% market share before Christmas?

Sure. If it cuts it's price to one dollar, it will happen easily.

No, price isn't the issue, even at $1 it would miss it if they didn't have enough stock, and at $200 or $250 they could get it if they have enough stock

I don't know about that.  I see Wiis on the shelves now.

It's not impossible to find like it once was.

Yes which is probably why they'll be able to do it, they have the stock, it isn't pricing that is affecting Wii, if it was, Wii sales would have been affected by the PS3 and 360 cuts, it wasn't, its the lack of games that has affected Wii, but Wii is getting NSMB and Wii Fit plus this fall, its sales will go back up.

I am not saying that the sales of the Wii are being affected by the price.  I am just saying that the sales would be much, much better if it cost 1 dollar.

I'd buy a few for friends this Christmas if it sold at this price.  At $249.99 or even $199.99 I am not buying a few Wiis this year.

Its okay, other people will be buying them, even if they are at $249 or $199, sales wouldn't be any better at $1 since once you are out, you're out, whether or not there is demand, you can only sell what you have, so why would Nintendo sacrifice profits when they'll sell out either way?
