Effect of sub-Wii prices on Xbox360 sales?

I think a problem with it is that it's the arcade version. It's still too dumbed down a version that I don't think it's right to view the console's price as "less than wii." Until a 360 with full featues gets below the wii, I don't think there's any debate.

Shouldn't have any effect.

I'm in Europe, and I paid less for my 20 GB 360 than for my Wii (Amazon UK has had a promotion for months now). Even ignoring promotions, Wii's price is really close to the price of the 360 Premium in Europe,and the Wii still outsells it by far.

Price is overrated during this gen. The only reason why some people give it so much attention is that it's an easy (but wrong) way to discount Wii's success.

 

 

I had no idea that the 360 was cheaper there, thanks for the info. I guess the reason I hoped that was the cause was I don't understand WHY the 360 is doing poorly. I love my wii by all means, but I think the 360 has an incredible library of games this generation.
