Everyone wants the Elite. People might settle with the Arcade because of price, but the masses want the Elite. So when it hits $200 you can expect a huge sales boost. Especially if MS does the price cut before Sony. no the masses don't care about elit,they care about the games whihc are playable on Arcade. yes $200 will have a big boost but not as big as you think as people already have ARCADE's Also, I think a $99 Arcade will be huge. I just noticed the Gamecube saw its best sales at $99. The Original Xbox saw its best sales when it went under $200. Almost 50% was sold at $149. I think the 360 will follow suit. $99 arcade would be big but MS won't do it for now and if they do $149 first and then $99 then it won't have much boost. Gamecube had its best sales at $99 but it wasn't selling at a higher price thats why.and even XBOX wasn't selling at the higher price and that the entire generation was low priced. this generation has been high priced and even then people bought the console,it isn't that just because of the lower price people will buy 2-3 360'S Do the math. The Move starter kit is $99. The navigation controller is $30. Some games seem to require 2 Move controllers. That'll be another $50 for that experience. And if you want to play multiplayer, you'll need more Move controllers. you can use DS3 as NAV I don't need to buy MOVE STARTER bundle as i already have an EYE. Only one MOVE and those some games requiring 2 MOVE controller will be rare so don't push it And for the game,i am already buying LBP,SOCOM,SORCERY,KILLZONE so why should i buy it Multiplayer is your problem as nobody in my home plays so i won't need more controllers.also like Wii people will buy more controllers also KINECT can't take more than 2 people at a time
so thats just $40 for a MOVE controller as i will be buying in Europe where it is cheaper and it will be more discounted on sites like AMAZON The Kinect on the other hand will most likely be under $150. My guess is more like $120. And you don't need any more accessories and multiplayer can be played on a single device. The Kinect seems like a bargain in comparison. how is it a bargain?????????? also don't forget that MOVE will have alot more games and better ones for all genres also MOVE price was affected by MS disappointing conference. MOVE is cheaper in EU,JAPAN and MOVE can also get a price cut as it costs alot less that its price to make Well I'm just saying the Wii can still have a negative impact on PS3 sales. Especially considering their motion devices are very much the same. the impact will be no greater than current one MOVE can only benefit Well did they really need to counteract immediately? The Xbox 360 had huge sales last year. They are still millions ahead of the PS3. Most importantly the 360 was likely sold at a profit. We know Sony was taking a hit for each PS3 sold. they are still 5million ahead even after being cheaper yes 360 had huge sales but not bigger than PS3 how is it important that 360 was making a profit when we are discussing sales,stop bullshiting Now its 2010. The 360 Slim has been released with no price and its selling like hot cakes. you are talking as if 360 has been selling like hotcakes whole of 2010 till now.............lol its just been 2 weeks and we don't know if it will continue and about 360 SLIM hotcakes,we don't know what is selling like hotcakes the discounted ARCADE and ELITES or the SLIM. The Kinect is coming and its getting a lot of attention (unlike the Move). almost all NATAL hype died down this E3 after KINECT name and MS horrible conference Reach is coming and that'll generate ungodly amounts of money along with Xbox Live Gold subscriptions. REACH releasing doesn't mean XBL money will be made do you even know how a game makes money I also expect a sales boost when the 360 Slim Arcade gets released. we will see when that happens Unless Sony gots another price cut up its sleeve or actually releases GT5, I don't know what else they can do to combat MS in the near future. SONY will only do a price cut if SLIM,KINECT,360 price cut makes an impact GT5 dropping November.you should follow gaming |
