A competitively priced Wii U means that out the gate consumers have more money to buy more games. If I had $400 to buy a games system, and the Wii U was say $199.99, I would easily grab that and 2-3 games and accessories. I feel like by slashing the home console price it would lead to a major boost in software sales to counteract whatever loss they would have gotten from the system cut. |
The bolded is your problem.
You =/= everyone else.
Even if a product is priced at $199 it doesn't mean people will buy it. Remember how the Amazon Fire Phone went from $199 to $0.99 but still no one wanted to buy it.
And even if the people do buy that $199 product it doesn't mean that they'll buy more software at all.
