For example if the Wii was priced at $450 or $500 would it be selling out like it is now? If they had made the PS3 without blu-ray and had scaled back on a few other things and released a console for $199 or $250 how would it be selling? I think that the Wii isn't really competing with anyone (or maybe the PS2) at the low-end in console gaming and that the 360 and PS3 are competing for the high-end in console gaming. |
Price is the problem (I don't think there is much of doubt about that) but this ends up causing a problem with compounds upon itself ...
- The high price means that a lot of users can not afford it
- Early adopters realise that (because of 1) the system will be less popular and have less exclusive games making it less valueable
