Sure, i could certainly see them revising or exceeding their current 16 million forcast but that wasnt really my point. Im just saying a decline in shipments does not necessarilly mean a price cut is impossible.

Right, you brought up last year being down YoY despite the big sale in this thread didn't you? But that's because the discounted SKU was only in stock for a short period of time. If it was in stock for the full length that the sale was supposed to do be then there's no way that it would have been down YoY.

Thats not what im referring to.

Some examples, the PS2 price cuts in 2003, 2004 or 2006 didnt stop YOY sales from dropping.

The Wii price cuts in 2009 & 2011 didnt stop YOY sales from dropping.

 

Just because Sony is forcasting shipments to be down this year does not necessarily mean a price cut isnt happening.
