Your totaly right on your first point , value is totaly subjective but i'm refering to "value on paper" in atempt to measure it's value objectivley. Personaly i'd feel more comofrtable paying £300 for a PS3 than I would paying £300 for a Wii but that's just me.

You'd be correct on your second point if the Wii and the PS3 where the same price , despite the PS3 being better value for money it doesn't stop it being expensive . To put it simply Organic food is probably better value for money than chemicaly grown produce however it's high price point means it'll still get outsold by chemicaly grown food because most people don't have the money to pay thatm much.

 

You can measure price objectively, but you cannot measure value objectively. Clearly, more people see the Wii as good value than people see the PS3 as good value. No PS3 price drop or game release has slowed Wii sales, so it's obvious no people that own, or wish to own, a Wii are being swayed by price. From a gaming perspective, they just see the Wii as better value than a PS3.

 

I said an "atempt" to measure value objectivley , I just listed what the console was capable of and since it could more usefull things than the Wii , it would be more objective to say the PS3 was better vale for money than the Wii.

I woudln't expect a PS3 price drop or game to affect the Wii , I woudln't even expect GTA IV to impact the Wii too much(for obvious reasons). But equaly a Wii price drop or software release wouldn't damage PS3 sales.

the consumer sees Wii as better value ? are you basing this purely on hardware sales or have you dome some kinda entensive market research to proove this or what ?. Like I said the PS3 is better value for money but it looses on it's high price point.

 


That is arguably the most contradictory sentence in the history of VGChartz posting.........
