Monges79 said:It probably will, because it's the cheapest. Period. If all three consoles were the same price, I doubt they would be doing as well as they have been. I originally  bought a Wii first, but if the 360 or PS3 were $250 at the same time then I would have gone with one of the HD consoles. Cheap sells.

 

No, the Wii doesn't sell because its the cheapest.

The N64 launched at $249, and the PlayStation launched at $299, did the N64 sell, no.

The GCN launched at $199, and was $99 for most of its lifespan. The PS2 launched at $299, and didn't become $99 until last year. Did the GC sell? No.

The Wii doesn't sell because of the innovation and appeal. It doesn't sell because of the price (though that does play a role)
