I do think there is some potential backlash to lowering their price this early, it could look like a product in danger, and if the market gets that picture it could turn off the customer base. I could picture a conversation in my local gamestop. "Yeah they dropped the ps3's by a 100 bucks." "Wow, I could afford in now! I'm surprised that happened so fast." -potential customer. "Yeah of course they dropped the price, because no one is buying it. Soon they'll move all the exclusives to the 360, and they'll be no reason to buy it, the price drop was a desperate attempt to stay in business!" - the nutty customer that practically lives in the store.
