@Alby: Except that if they have seen a 360 ad and go to a store to specifically get 360 because of the ad.

And also, considering it was retailers that originally revealed the Wii pricecut, it's more likely that Nintendo dealt in similar fashion that Sony did.
The old units, that a retailer bought with the old price and sold with the new, are likely to be compensated when making orders for new ones.

@Untamoi: He was talking about one extreme, not the general gaming population.

Thank you.

 

@de85: I was just stating my opinion, I'm not trying to put off anything as a fact. I meant that I stated my point, not "I shoved the facts in your face" or the sort.

 

Back to bdbdbd:

 

1 & 3. Yikes!...you got me there. I retract and apologize. +1 for you

 

4. I don't think many casual gamers play RPGs or shooters much...or am I wrong?

 

Basically, all that's confusing me now is why a casual would opt for an elite, when he can save money by buying an arcade with some family friendly games and an arcade volume. I don't know, that's how I feel, really.

 

Anyway, I guess this'll be resolved when we see how the Wii and 360 do after the Wii price cut.
