How is the Wii and 360 selling. Is it a case of 360 struggling to sell and Wii being sold out and therefore MS having no choice but to do this.

Does that matter? The Wii is not sold out here in Europe anymore, although it is hard to find an unbundeled one.

My question was not why Microsoft did this, but what would the outcome be. I beleive that many console sales come from parents buying for their kids, so if Xbox360 is now cheaper I think that would become the default choice. Just my thoughts would maybe could happen.

 


 Do you really think it is the price the gets people excited about the Wii?  It's the wiimote/wiisports.  People don't look at the price and say "Oh...this is the cheaper one...Billy and Sally won't care."  As much as you don't want to think about it...if parents are buying consoles for their kids they are doing so to PLEASE them.  If the kids want the Wii, a 360 isn't going to do the trick.  On the other hand, if the kid wants a 360....50-100 dollars isn't going to matter that much, honestly.
