yup even in 5 years the PS3 won't be $100, of course it wont' matter at all in 5 years anyway.

why would you say that you don't think the PS3 would still be selling in 5 year's?

if you do not think so I would not bet on it if anything it may have strong sales for the PS3 mainly because even now the PS3 has not been released everywhere yet.

remember in some part's of the world the PS3 was not even released iuntil 2007 and in some 2008 until recently 2010

 Malaysia

indonesia

did not get the ps3 until 1 oct 2009

Argentina

did not get the the ps3 until 2009

Chile

did not get the the ps3 until 2009

Philippines

Thailand

Vietnam

no the ps3 will not be selling barely any systems in 5 years and those markets dont' buy software and barely matter at all.  That's exactly why they waited so long to bring it there.

and you want to tell them their market barly matter's at all?

then why invest there if you intend to stop selling the unit's in 5 year's?
