Because a price cut really helped the Wii out (which was selling around the same as the PS3, perhaps slightly better), didn't it?

A price cut will probably boost sales for a month or so, but then it'll settle down again. If you think a price cut will be a magical cure which will give it an extra 2 mil or so this year, then I'm sorry to disappoint you but it won't happen.

The comparasion is not fair... a dead console with the PS3... a price cut for PS3 will hold for a long time yet.

What about the PS3s price drop in 2011? It didn't really do anything major for it.

That was a stupid decision from Sony.   Price cuts not always mean more sales.

PS3 reaching $199 won't do much much for them.  If Sony could make the 12gb model reach the $149 pricepoint,it would be another story.
