Guess Project Cafe's launch price

$250 10 3.98%
 
$300 85 33.86%
 
$350 84 33.47%
 
$400 52 20.72%
 
$450 9 3.59%
 
$599 11 4.38%
 
Total:251

And in November 2013 the Xbox 3 will come out at $399 (that strategy worked well last time). The Café won't have seen its first pricecut, so it will still be $299 in that Holiday season (PS3 will cost $199).

And in late 2014 the PS4 comes out at... lemme think about that, but as MS will still be $399 when PS4 is released Sony might target the same price level. Yes $399 for a PS4. By this time Café is seen as old and weak (and much less successful than the Wii) and will have dropped to $249.

I chose €350. Sounds about right. 300 may be too little considering the technology Café will in theory incorporate and considering Nintendo never sells at a loss. 400 may be a tad too expensive for a Nintendo console.

I went with $300. I can't think of a time (outside maybe the 3DS - and even that's a stretch) where Nintendo priced out of mass market. I also believe that [yes] we will have a price announcement @ E3.


I agree, except I don't think it's a stretch to say that the 3DS is overpriced. Maybe if Nintendo had a proper killer app for it, $250 would have been fine, but I don't see one on the horizon.

I'll also go on record that if Cafe costs more than $300 it will be a M-I-S-T-A-K-E.

I'm guessing $300 because I don't think Nintendo want to turn away consumers by announcing a high price.  I think $349 will be the highest.  I don't think there will be a price annoucement at E3.



$350, because they can drop the price when the competition arrives.

After two years? LOL That's when consoles start touching their peak!

Sounds like wishful thinking. Hopefully if you say it enough times, it will actually happen. :P  Besides, I shudder to think of the momentum the PS4 will have to make up if it release 2 years later than P. Cafe.
