I hope the cut makes a huge splash, so that MS and Nintendo respond with cuts of their own. I don't want bundles, I want price cuts. And then bundles

I don't think at this point neither companies will bother to respond to the PS4's price cut. If I remember right, Phil Spencer said a few weeks ago that Microsoft is not trying to beat Sony's sales numbers anymore. They just want to make the Xbox an amazing console for their customers. 

This is business, in a situation like this you have to respond in one way or another. These are the rules of competition, you either play the game or you die, cause you are forced out of the market.

It's obvious that MS can't cut the price to a ridiculous level, they have their costs, but on the other hand - they cannot afford to be outgunned by PS4 so badly. I expect either a cut (at least $30) or MS sweetening the bundles they are releasing. I think they're going to repeat the deal from last year, where you could select one extra game on Live! for free. Maybe both. Still, they have to react. I am very happy that MS is pressuring Sony after all and is forcing them to step up their game, I hope they keep at it with an incoming revision of the ridiculous build of the Xbone and a pricecut.

Nintendo on the other hand... Oh, who cares! I couldn't care less about what they are doing outside of releasing the NX. A price cut is always nice, but there is no way it would be beneficial for them, so they might as well stay at the current level and ride this gen out.
