Zucas said: Oh come on guys think. Why would Nintendo drop the price of the Wii if it's selling well. Your sitting here telling me Wii will sell 40 million in 2008 and will obviously sell out. But they are also going to drop the price. WHY? That makes no sense. If its going to sellout then why are you going to drop the price. Now you make $50 less in profit. That makes no sense. It only makes sense if your suggesting that Wii won't sell out in 2008, but the pricedrop will get it back on top. But then the numbers your suggesting are even harder to believ.e I don't like that discrepency. |
Simple if it tapers off at $250, or they need to launch in new regions like China and India, where price is more important to the consumers
