You mean Nintendo games, right? If so, then yes, I think they could launch them in the 50-55 $/€ price point (about 5-10 more than now). Third parties will go 60-65. |
No, I mean the hardware. I have a large collection of games and I didn't amass it by buying expensive hardware. I usually wait for a system to reach a price of $50-150 before I buy it. I bought my PS2 for $200, Xbox for $50, GameCube for $50, Dreamcast for $50, 360 for $125, etc... I bought a launch model PS3 when EB Games had an excellent promotion for $250 by trading 30 games and I regret not waiting much longer than I did. The Wii is certainly not better than an Xbox, GameCube or Dreamcast so I wouldn't even be excited by the prospect of ''only'' paying $50 for one. I'd simply toss it in the pile and get around to it once I complete my excess backlog of Xbox, GameCube and PC games.
