| Bodhesatva said: There's a lot of crazy caveats here, Kasz. First, we remove PS3 from "regular" systems by calling it a "super price" system, a category which only contains systems like the Neo Geo and 3D0 with little historical data. Then, we separate the 360 by considering inflation. Okay. Shouldn't we then consider inflation for the PS3 as well? I wouldn't be surprised if the PS3 ended up being ~300 dollars by SNES standards, for example. Nowhere near the 3D0 or Neo Geo. |
By super price I mean higher then the Playstation, the most expensive successful console since the crash. (Relative to inflation.)
If you look at the chart you'll actually see it does account for PS3. Which is equal to about the saturn. Another losing system that tripled it's sales second year in a region.
The PS3 looks to be the Saturn of the West. Barring a big monumental shift... of which price shouldn't be a factor.
