Another PS3 price cut, lol |
I don't think it would be that funny for the other consoles. It would put PS3 back within $50.00 of Wii, the price difference that existed before Nintendo saw how successful the PS3 was at being at $299 and caused Nintendo to have to lower the Wii's price in response, so they would have to lower the Wii's price by another $50.00 and that would mess up the pricing strategy they have for their handhelds, and the 360 has shown that even with a $199 Arcade and a $299 Elite they can't beat the PS3 worldwide, so if Sony brought the PS3 down to $250 and had even stronger sales, Microsoft would have to lower their prices even more to keep up.
Is it really a win for Microsoft if at the end they have to bring the Arcade down to $100 to guarantee a win? I don't think that would look too good to their investors.
