| dbot said: I don't think a price drop impacts Wii sales. The 360 is already the cheapest console on the market. If you take into account the forced Wii bundles. It will be interesting to see the impact of this drop. It will definately spike sales for the next few weeks, but if it doesn't sustain a higher weekly sales volume then MS is in deep trouble. |
I know this has been stated before, but the 360 only APPEARS cheap in relation to the PS3. Take into account what you'd have to add to match the PS3 and it's actually MORE expensive. Add wi-fi, a bigger hard drive (on anything except the Elite of course), pay for XBOX Live just to name a few. Throw in PS3's ability to play back the next-gen hi-def movie standard and the PS3 is a FAR better value for your dollar IMO.
Keep this in mind when reading what I type...
I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.
