Wii/360/PS3 Prices

[montrealsoon]

There must be marketing studies showing there is demand for a "deluxe videogame system" pricing, as they keep cropping up every so many years... NEO GEO, CD-I, CDTV, 3DO, PS3, 360... I think the 360/PS3 are priced so high because both companies are basically scared of each other and wanted to offer "the best system". I read last autumn there was a survey done and the vast majority of the videogame public expected the PS3 at $299. (the vast majority of the videogame public not being fervent news readers). I think that was the first real sign of PS3 sales problems. I think the Wii is priced so (relatively) high because the other two systems are priced out of the market. Basically MS and SONY gave the green light for mad profits at Nintendo! {smiley}
