New $99.99 XBox 360 (Stingray) Coming This Fall? Implications For Wii U?

Soundwave said:

360/PS3 will be supported heavily by third parties through 2015 at least IMO. There won't be one third party who makes an exclusive big Wii U game without a PS3/360 version (see: Rayman) unless its something primarily for the Japanese market.

Too big of an audience to ignore.

ZombieU

Edit: Also, is a price cut for a dyign console really the big news here?

 

Assuming this rumour is true, we have seen

 

The price for the 720

The price of the 720's rip off subscription mode

No backwards compatability

Always online is a requirement, and that initial announcement wasn't just akin to Wii connect 24/7.

 

So yeah, if the rumour is false (99%), then we should discuss none of it. If the rumour is true (1%) We should be discussing whether this d00ms the 720, not the WiiU.
