Dr.Henry_Killinger said: PS4 sales seems to be doing good but Sony as a whole is going through major restructuring which is costing a whole lot of money. Why not shave of the extra $0.50 from the PS4 and let the consumer choose what kind of power cord they wish to use? They would save 3 million USD and reduce there projected losses to 1.097 Billion. AC power cords are so common that finding one is relatively simple, people can even use their slim/superslim PS3 power cord for their ps4. Or they could pass off some of those savings to the consumer and have the sku cost $399.50 USD which reduces the price gap between it and the Wii U and increases the price gap between it and the Xbox One. Especially with the cord cutting phase sweeping the mainstream world, I think it would be wholly beneficial to creating a clean living room space. |
You get it backwards Sony is NOT including a power cord for free. The PS4 costs 395 bucks you already pay 5 for the power cord =400
You also pay 15 more for the HDMI cable even tho everyone can buy 10m of HDMI cables on ebay for 3-4 bucks. But according to console manufacturers 1.5m costs 20bucks.
