Cut €50 from the price of a console which isn't selling, person who buys it is going to most likely buy a Nintendo Brand game for €50 which otherwise wouldn't have been sold without the price drop, instantly negates the "loss" on the systems sale. |
That's the flaw here, assuming a price drop, especially a small one with no major game release to coincide with and with NX on the horizon, is going to significantly increase sales. Kart and Smash couldn't even do that so it's pretty safe to say nothing else will either certainly not at this point. All a price drop would do is maybe a small hardware sales bump on it's first week, but then it's back to 30k per week, except now they earn less money per Wii U sold, not a wise move.
