I found that interesting...

"It should be noted that the Saturn released at $100 more than the PSX, and it took Sega nearly a year to knock it down to $299..."


Sega was in a very different situation.  They couldnt afford to loss lead with their hardware.  Look at how quickly sony dropped the price of the ps3 or how quickly microsoft dropped the price of the original xbox.  The companies invloved in the game business today have deeper pockets that can help prop up a loss leading device for long term benefit.
