The PS3 is going to sell at least 35 million more consoles, which would be quite successful in my opinion, but hitting 100 million? I doubt it.


I think the $300 price point of the PS3 is worth another 5 million consoles, a $200 price point worth 25 million consoles, and $150 worth 5 million. Depending on word of mouth, increasing Blu-ray popularity, and other factors, I'm sure each of those price points could push more consoles, but it would take some luck.

so when do you think the PS3 will drop to $200.00, this year?

those are fine price point's, but the very fact were in a recession, that has less of a chance of turning around anytime real soon

Oops, totally didn't think that all the way through. I was going to say that $300 would be worth 10-15 mil, but I thought that might be a stretch. I guess, thinking about how they just dropped the price, 10-15 mil is more in line with how many more consoles the PS3 will sell at $300. I suppose the PS3 has 80 million in its sights.

 

To be honest though, I never see the PS3 selling for $100, ever. They aren't going to be able to cram wifi, Blu-Ray, and a hard drive into the PS3 and sell it for $100, to think so is foolish. It will be too late in the generation for sales to matter, and Sony will focus more on making money with each console sold.
