Yep, the rule must roughly be "don't drop the price too low too early", that's what devalue the product, but price drops at a not frantic rate are expected in the electronics and IT markets, and they usually expand the audience and extend the life of successful products. And Wii IS successful, a lot more than GC, struggling to exceed 20M sold and exceeding 80M and just having more difficulties than predicted to most likely exceed 120M lifetime, if not more (*), aren't by any means the same. (*) (and Wii can still exceed 140M if Ninty does something, it's just 180-200M thresholds that aren't likely anymore, even with huge efforts, and 160M that turned from "with some efforts" into "with huge efforts") |
Well, if anything I blame software. Wii isn't getting much third party support and Nintendo is only producing a handful of quality titles for the Wii. Also a lot of attention (at least in Americas) is shifting to Kinect, Wii may start to have trouble competing.
I agree with you completly about Wii's LTD sales. 120 is likely, 140 is possible, but I think 160 is possible of Nintendo adds something as unique s the Balance Board out to the lineup.
