i disagree that lowering the price "lowers" the value. Its all a game of "perceived" values anyways. The appeal of the PS3, for example, is that (at least among gamers) you're getting a good deal because the machine is actually *worth* (i'm using the word "worth" subjectively here) 800 or 900 dollars. So since you're only spending 600 on it, then you're getting a good *value* out of it. the same goes with the Wii. The pack in game is *worth* 50 extra dollars, but Nintendo decided it to bundle it in as a free game. So you're actually getting something that might be valued at 300 dollars at only 250. (though one might argue that Nintendo is charging you extra money for Wii Sports, since its only like 215 in japan and there's no pack in game)
