Towards the end of a given price cycle you will see the system at its lowest sales, at the beginning they are at their highest. So while over a year it may look like it's all the same, you're missing the fact that if they didn't cut the price the sales would have lowered. Hell, based on the raw data you've presented it actually looks like PS2 sold worse at $179 than it did at $199, if that doesn't tell you there are more factors than what you've displayed there I dunno what does. |
Agreed, that was the problem I had with the data from sony. I didn't say if they didn't cut the price sales would have lowere, just saying that with a price cut you might not necassarily get more units sold.
I was suprised too that it sold worse at 179$ than at 199, but hey it is not my data. I got it from Sony.
