Why wait for sales to slow down to try and pick them back up when you can try to take already high sales and make them even higher? Why would you want to drop price at any other time than the time when your heavy hitting games release? The games increase sales, the price cut increases them further. The price cut increases consoles sale, which in turn also increases software sales. maximizing the potential of your big exclusives and 3rd party partnerships makes a lot of sense. It's win/win.
It would also be a great move since the effects of this cut would be felt from now until the holidays and possibly beyond, because for every sale the PS4 can take from the XB1 can have a trickle down effect due to friends buying what friends buy. At no point is increased marketshare a bad thing, especially when you're already in the drivers seat and making profit on each unit. More consoles sold = more peripherals sold = more games sold = better than their current state, even if their current state is very good. |
True enough. I just would like Sony to have room for price cuts when they're really needed. Unlike MS who already went pretty low and, imo, a $299 XB1 won't have a big affect now.
