| TheSource said: Nintendo could drop Wii - still packaged with Wii Sports - to $200. To do this, Ninitendo would need huge stock reserves. However, with production supposedly at 1.8 million/month, and sales unlikely to top 1.3/1.4 million routinely worldwide (except when games like Smash/Wii Fit/Mario Kart launch, or for a price drop, or for holidays), Nintendo might be able to drop an extra 1 million+ units in April to June 2008 in the Americas. If that is the case, then Reggie will be correct, and despite GTAIV, Wii will surpass Xbox 360 by June. |
Just having huge stock reserves to release would allow them to meet this goal..they don't need to drop price to do it. I'm actually kind of surprised you think otherwise...any particular reason?
edit: The part I'm surprised about is that you think a surge of units would somehow languish without an accompanying price drop to help move them out the door...I'm not entirely in disagreement about the difficulties of meeting the goal by June.
