Pointless cutting the price when you have no compelling software for people to play. Simple videogame industry sales stuff.

The portable Dreamcast.

Its not about compelling software, its not giving ample time for the price cut to be seen.  Sony should have had a future date for the price cut when they announced it at Gamescom to send more units out to retail to sell...its not like sales could have gone lower from what they were.


Its all about compelling software.

Games sell systems. If there is nothing worthwhile there to buy, then people wont be interested no matter how much you cut the price.

Having a bit longer to advertise your cut obviously helps somewhat, but if you have no new games releasing around the time of your pricecut then you aint gonna do nuthin'. Youll have a small bump and sales will go back to (Or slightly higher than) pre-cut numbers.
