Isnt that like suggesting that Sony needs to cut the price of the PS4 before launch because the Wii U has a huge price advantage over them?
I know most will comment back that the PS4 offers more, but when comparing the X1 to PS4 the X1 offers more in the box as well.
I am not sure how anyone can claim one needs a price cut but the other one doesn't.

Uhhh, no. MS and Sony are competing for the same market while Nintendo is going for the casual. No matter how successful the Wii U is, that won't stop the X1 and PS4.

I actually wonder if MS is competing in the same market as Sony.  The way that MS is headed, they are going for the more broader appeal where devices like the Apple TV and Google stuff will be positioned.  In other words the millions of people who are willing to spend 500 dollars on a tablet.  Not sure if thats the best course of action but that seem to be MS direction.
