Then thanks to those accumulated profits they can afford a much larger price cut in the future then Sony could afford to match. The result could be a two hundred dollar 360 next spring which would most definitely not be something Sony could come close to matching, and would most definitely put the final nail in the coffin. Further more that would force Nintendo to remain competitive. Honestly Nintendo doesn't seem to be in a position where they would need to cut prices regardless during the holiday season. |
Especially if Microsoft manage to sort out the RROD and release this in a cheaper model, if they want to last for 5 year cycle they have to leave themsleves somewhere to go as the PS3 will last the test of time more than others. Thats what I think they may do sometime in 08, let sony get rpice cuts out of their system then release a new chepaer version with no RROD.
Those people that think they're perfect give a bad reputation to us who are...
"With the DS, it's fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen, but I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that." - Phil Harrison, Sony
