The whole industry is rather massively down compared to last year (or to 2009 and 2008....). Luckily 3DS is just around corner.


dont worry. sony is just waiting now, to unleash their $199 ps3 and i dont care what microsoft replies with, just like the last price drop, ps3 will pull away again but THIS TIME, by a bigger margin and not only that but at the same time ps3 will overtake 360 somewhere in that period, i say november to april of next year. by the way, im going by sony's and microsoft's numbers, so people, dont start throwing numbers everywhere that are from vgchartz at me!

They broke even on $299 PS3 in... June 2010, I believe? No way in hell they'll make it to $199 before 2012 and it makes no sense whatsoever to go into the red for fun before that, especially with the expected loss that NGP might sell at.

And I'm not entirely convinced that $199 will have such an enormous effect at all. Not unless they package it with a SuperSlim, anyway.
