Did the price cut really helps the PS3 and the Wii? Or its just temporary?

OK then, if thats what you want then Im fine with that. Im already let this topic go and say few months later "I told you so" when that time comes. But since you insist I'll let you and others here and make a monthly comparison. I still win though, nothing can win the OCT-Dec. 2008 and Jan.-Mar. 2009 NPD

 

BTW 2009 was the start of recession and the Wii still selling that much till March

That was NOT your point. Your point was trying to state that both price cuts failed because of some reason no one is able to see. Yet, now you want to "prove" that they have failed because they couldn't beat the numbers from the year before (which was the top year for consoles like the Wii). That's just ludicrous. If Man Utd doesn't score more than 100 goals, they will have failed, even though they might still win the league? It doesn't work like that. Sales have increased tremendously for the PS3 right now, and that's the aim of the price cut. Because, with your "logic", the 360 is bound to be this year's biggest failure.

 

 

 

Did I say holiday months? The wii sells double in month of September inspite of no pricecut.  like everyone here says the console sales are seasonal. Seem Nintendo only wants to bite that they cant chew. If the sales of the Wii doubled in the month of October in the next NPD then Im convinced the pricecut was working.

 

And as for ther WW thing, its official some countries especially UK have no preicecut so far. So theres no reason to pull out the WW numbers to prove that the pricecut was working.
