Even GameCube didn't routinely sell below 50,000 per month in the US until 2006, Sony better hope Vita stabilizes soon, at 50,000 or more, otherwise even cutting the price by 50% might not push it significantly over 100,000 per month at this point given how bad the momentum is for the system.
Also, consoles (not portables) had their weakest July (411k) since July 2000, continuing the trend this year where console numbers are back to the late PS1 era. Wii is down over 50% from last year in the US and could use a price cut to $100, X360 & PS3 together are down 25%, with X360 down 30% (on pace for 5m) individually and PS3 down 20% (on pace for 3.6m).
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
When there are more laws, there are more criminals.
