Think of it this way. Nintendo themselves thinks it's a bad sku. If they thought it was on par to the other ones, they would not be selling it for $40/$70 less. |
Thats the worst argument ive ever heard in my life. If this didnt release then people would be expecting a price cut on 3DS in the near future. By releasing a $129 sku, that eliminates the need to cut the price of the more expensive skus thus keeping high profit margins.
I guess Sony thinks the 12gb PS3 is a horrible sku or else it would cost $269 or Microsoft thinks the 4gb 360 sku is horrible or else it would cost $299.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
