Next week? Only if MS either:

a) somehow knew Sony was going to cut the price last Friday.
b) figured Sony would cut the price at some point this season and have a full-blown response ready at the flip of a switch.

Both of those assumptions include another assumption that MS wants to cut the price before the holiday season really sets in. Either way, I imagine a big corporation like MS or Sony needs to do far more than just send out an email to retailers announcing a price cut, probably requiring at least a few weeks of organizing and communication with ad teams. A price cut to coincide with Halo 5 might be in the cards. Or Xbox fans might just have to wait a few weeks later for Brack Friday Bundurus to drop.

I'm not sure how it works, anybody working in retail that could give us an idea?

I would of though that a huge corporation like MS can get the cogs into motion very quickly, even if it meant working flat out over the weekend to make it happen.

Well its microsoft, we know how competitive they are... And im sure they have some type of plan.
