Sure, it would help there. But would it be worth it? This is very basic, but would you rather sell 3m units breaking even (or making a very small loss) over the holiday or 5m taking a $50 higher loss? I don't think a price cut would lead to enough hardware sales to make it worth it, especially if the software isn't there because that's supposed to make up for the newer losses on hardware. It's all about the software and advertising this year, I think a price cut is better suited for next year.
edit: by software not being there I mean for Japania
