why?

You people do not understand Nintendo at all. When they promise they will meet their projections they actually mean it. Not like Sony for the last decade.

If for no other reason they bump their market share, or keep it at 50%, after the launch of the competitors motion controls they have done their job of securing the tail end of this gen.

This price drop doesn't really have anything to do with Sony not meeting their projections "for the last decade".

I would understand if you were brining up Sony to compare the effect of Wii's price drop versus the one on PS3, but I don't think what you have said here is really necessary.

I didn't say that. I mean in general Nintendo promise in their projections what they can achieve. Sony (the whole thing, not just games) overestimated their projections for a long time, thats the comparrison i am making.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
