Well, I'm not privy to what goes on in the upper echelons of Sony but given they chose not to cut the price I can only imagine they figured the profit margin they made on each console would bring in more than selling a greater number of systems at a loss. |
That is the most reasonable conclusion. Considering Sony have been doing well then we can only assume that whatever price point they kept the console is the one that on their projections generate the biggest profit.
