seems about right. Sony know retailers will undercut each other! that 16GB PS3 will be $149.99 on Amazon. with Sony suggested price of $179.99 it still gives them higher profits then if they just said $149. its the retailers taking the hit to get games sales. watch it happen!

any idea how this will translate to UK pricing?
I'm thinking of getting the 16GB model and putting 1TB in ;)

I highly doubt their move bundle would be for the largest SKU, probably the 16gb. Since motion control gaming is more toward the casual crowd they want to keep their price down if they can, bundling with a cheaper SKU will do that. So you could get the 250gb PS3 for $200 or the 16gb PS3 with a move controller and sports champions 1 or 2 or both.

So I read the GAF thread. You have the price wrong for the most expensive model. It's $269, not $279.

I see it as a $20 cut. Most consumers look at the main model, which went from $249 to $229 but received the expected HDD upgrade.

Thanks!

Just so you're aware, the Move bundle has always been, and currently is, for their largest SKU.  They're not going to price two SKUs the same and compete with themselves.  The prices need to be staggered, and they're not going to all of a sudden change that.

Well they released a 20 gb model once...perhaps the people they are targeting with this aren't likely to buy plus anyways?

well they didn't really offer much in terms of digital content at the time.. a lot of people thought 20gb was enough, and that the 60gb model would last for years upon years.. I have a 120gb ps3 and I struggle to keep content on the HDD..

No, you made a random guess like you and tons of other do every day, quickly forgetting when you are wrong, but bragging non stop and putting it in your signature when you happen to get it right. You're just like those amateur penny traders on Wall Street who claim to have 'a formula'. It's just dumb luck so get over it.

Or it might be the price they need to keep a decent profit margin rather than break-even or slip into the red again.
