"If two is several. You have to know that this is the Europe where, I believe, only the 60 and 40 gb models were introduced."
Heh, you caught me out. I guess I forgot that this discussion is limited to the European market and got a little carried away.
Those who disregard the potential sales increase from a Wii price drop are kidding themselves quite frankly. I did acknowledge the current limitations imposed by supply issues, which is obviously the reason why we have not seen a price drop yet. Nevertheless, if Nintendo did address this, and supply was not an issue then sales would skyrocket.
Not everyone can afford a Wii at its present cost. Sure it is priced at a mass market level but a price drop would definately spur demand. Obviously, this is why the PS2, PSP and DS are even cheaper still - because a low price point generates sales. We have yet to discover the Wii's true potential given the ongoing supply problem. IMO the Wii is actually overpriced right now, and I'm glad I picked one up at launch. The fact that it still sells at the same price point is unprecedented really.
