Oh, it will definitely fly off shelves at $300 with the right software. The PS2 did exceptionally well at that launch price (still holds the record here in the States for the biggest first day opening for a console). Granted, it also featured DVD playback, but its launch lineup was pretty lackluster. All WiiU needs is the right games. |
Another point in favor of PS2 was that it was riding off the huge success of the PS1. 100M sales at the time was a ginormeous feat. Plus impeccable marketing and brand power. Nintendo is doing very well post DS/Wii, but is still a disputed winner this gen, since PS360 together beat it, and a large segment is not under its banner, So, it's way under the PS1's power, and way below what the big N is capable of, and what it's once been (NES).
