Sony's initial strategy was to release a technical monster, then expect brand name, and specs to sell the machine...well they failed. Hence the price-drop and the slim. Those two were basically an admittance from Sony that their initial strategy failed. And good for them, perhaps now they can start pulling in some profits... |
? wait sony always does a price cut even when don't needed from ps2 days.
and if they price drop it wasn't that against their premium strategy? u don't make sense. sony wanted to compete. and they decided to release a monster.
a monster that actually lost them money, it would be terrible for them if the machine started selling like the ps2 it's peak years. 22 + million in a year.
loosing 200$ on each console.
now the machine it's well cheaper to built, and now they started it market it like they should, now they have games and just reached ps2 launch price.
if u think all that it's pure luck you are understatimating sony.
they did lay on their brand name, but they promised games and delivered, and still support it ps2 today.
