well if they do, only trouble with that is that you need not only a $400 home console, but then another $250 system for just the starting gate. or what is ps3 right now price wise?

then how do you track this? out of the 50 million ps3 users and XX amount of Psv users how many have both? i guess by singing onto psn and linking or whatever they coudl get a figure, but then what do they do? do they announce regularily that currently there are 5 million people that have BOTH of our systems?

or how do they let developers know that there is a market for these types of gaming experiences?

its kind of like move. sure it has sold 8 million, but where is its support software wise? when something is not implemented from the get go its tough to pick up.

you can get a ps3 now for $300 but by the time the wii u launches im sure the ps3 will have dropped to $200 and considering that the wii u will likely be over $350 the real question here will be who would want to buy it when they can get both a ps3 and psv for a comparable price given that the psv will also be portable... but thats my take

you think the ps3 will drop in price $100 in a year?  highly doubtful.   I can see it POSSIBLY being $250.   I dont' see a price cut until they hear of Wii U's price.  Then depending on that, they will drop or not.  Right now PS3 is selling great, why drop price?
