When Iwata speaks he's speaking in terms of growth not sustaining sales but sustaing growth.
To any company the idea is to show growth. Nintendo has opted not to go for the same consumers as some it's competitors but still show growth.
The point of a price drop is to test the market to see where the consumers see the Wii's value. The way Microsoft and Sony have been doing it only saturates that market for the other platform.
The difference is that Sony, Microsoft and third parties are marketing and in some cases making the games people bought those systems for. =)
All he's saying is the price drop was effective in sustaining the sales but shows Nintendo failed as a company to keep growth.
I'm Unamerica and you can too.
