| FishyJoe said: I wish people would stop saying it needs a price cut in Japan because it already has the lowest prices in the world. The 40gb can be picked up for less than $330 in some shops. Not only does it have the cheapest prices in Japan, it also has new controllers and a new color. |
Just because its got the cheapest price in the world means its not expensive anymore? I guarantee there are more people in Japan that want a PS3, but without the games and for that price they will wait to jump. Just like the issue in the US and in Europe. High price, not many games, not a lot of people will buy it. Especially with the Wii right there with its best game in the box.
Pricing is too high to make someone just unless they see something they really like on the console ATM. I don't think many Japanese people go in to a store and say "hmm, it cost more than the other consoles, but HEY WE GOT THE CHEAPEST PS3 PRICE IN THE WORLD SO LETS GET IT!!!"
