lol, Sony crowd really excited here xD

I really think under 400 is not gonna happen, at least not without massive sacrifices

so is Sony going to lose money at launch on this one?

All Playstation consoles were sold at loss during launch.  PS4 won't be the exception.

I don't know Why people are assuming that Sony and/or MS won't take losses.

well just look at where this path has brought them...moneybleeding path, theyre barely making any profit overall in this 7 years if any both of them, that should really be the ultimate indicative that their model is somehow flawed...

$399 wouldn't cause them to lose much money on every system sold.  They won't take $300 in losses for every PS4 sold like with the PS3.

The same strategy worked for PS1 and PS2. Put Sega out of business and ended Nintendo dominance in the console world.

those things happened mostly because of mistakes from nintendo and sega. and that same strategy didn't stop nintendo from recaliming the dominance and almost killed sony.

I could say that Sony losing this Gen was mostly because of Sony own mistakes and not Nintendo/MS rights too. But that wouldn't be right.

The same applies to Sega and Nintendo in the 90s

 

 

Dominance ?

SNES,PS1 and PS2 were dominant. Wii wasn't.
