| BeElite said: 99 might be impossible, but a 149.99 should be realistic. I see no reason killing it, given the more PS out in the world the more PSN users the more digital sales the more PS+ subscribers the more controllers and what not sold. More markets with PS brand awareness more PS owners looking to upgrade to PS4 in the distant future. It could equate to it being barely breaking even on the consoel yet overall very lucrative keeping it going, for gods sake PS2 got Fifa 14 Is there any idea what the superslim costs are ? |
I'm sure $150 is realistic as is $130 or so.
But it there is more to it than just how much can it be reduced. Retailers have to also want to stock and display it. As well as is there general demand for the aging system. We have to remember than this gen lasted longer than previous gens and their successors came well years later than we've seen historically. Its very likely PS360 simply won't be able to sell for so many years after the others.
NES SNES PS1 and PS2 all massively dominated their generations. Thus they had the obvious late gamer appeal due to be the defact source for all of the best games available.
PSWii60 all are going to end with relatively close lifetime sales and no massive dominance. Each with their own selection of great games. I simply do not see any of these consoles lasting the length of time previous generation winners have done post-successor launch. None of them are really similar to those market dominators.
