3DS was given a price cut because the psvita had the same price point. $249.99. Iff PS4 is $299.99 WiiU will receive a price cut.


It didn't have anything to do with PS Vita.  3DS released a year prior to Vita in Japan and North America.  It was all about the sales trend being below what game publishers including Nintendo found to be at a tolerable level.  They needed to increase the sales trend or they risked having games being cancelled for it and causing even more damage.  It was sort of an act of emergency to get the system moving again. 

PS4 will definitely not be $299.  It'll be at least $399.



and sales trend was low because of the hype and expectation of a portable ps3. if 3ds had a total monopoly in the dedicated space, you think sales would still be poor envoking a price cut... i disagree with you. i also believe sales of wiiu are low because of hype and expectation of the 8th gen competition that is coming. If not for the coming ps4 and xbox3 wii u would have higher sales ....no? ps. i know ps4 wont be $299..
