Christmas is coming, kids are a big market, and the whole portable hardcore thing isn't working. Get the kids and you'll get everyone. Ignore the kids and lose. The hardcore isn't enough anymore. Not sure if hardcore alone was ever enough. |
They don't have to be quite so drastic. Either a price cut, or a packed in memory card. Not both. Sony do want to make a little profit on every unit sold. I think a price cut (equal to the cost of a memory card) is more likely to bring in the punters, and some game bundles. That'd ensure a reasonable holiday period and profits.
