it would be that high a percentage but if a console is released at a much higher price at launch then it will get most of its sales after $199

 

Wii was already released at $249 and as a help from its competitors which launched at far higher prices so Wii already got most of its sales before as it was already cheap compared to the other two

 both 360 and PS3 will earn most of their sales at$199 or lower price

Do you know why companys ect and history has shown that? It's because the consoles time on the market at $199 outweighs it's time on the market at the higher price.

i agree on the loe-j being wrong part abt the history and all

 

but 360 has been $199 for some time so the time period at lower price is higher than the time period above $199

 

PS3 will most likely be $199 next year will stay for 5 more years

 

i know that many people don't agree with the plan but SONY will be stuck to it like they always do

 

thehistory doesn't always repeat,it just gives a some statistics to predict the future trends

It all depends when the PS3 hits $199 tbh, it's alredy the longest console out that hasn't hit $199, could well be in it's 6th year when that happens, at the point, it's getting nowhere near 70% of it's sales that late in it's life.

I agree it'll last 10 years, but then that's never been thanks to Sony so to speak, the consumers chose to keep it alive that long.

This gen it's more than likely all will reach 10 years old, this gen is gonna be looong
