what about $149.99-$199.99 Wii's?

249$ price is ALREADY MASS MARKET price.
In that case 149-199$ won`t make much EFFECT on sales -> Look at GAME CUBE sales at 149$.

Damn, you need to study more, MUCH more.



Every 5 seconds on earth one child dies from hunger...

2009.04.30 - PS3 will OUTSELL x360 atleast by the middle of 2010. Japan+Europe > NA.


Gran Turismo 3 - 1,06 mln. in 3 weeks with around 4 mln. PS2 on the launch.
Gran Turismo 4 - 1,16 mln. with 18 mln. PS2 on the launch.

I thought mass market price was $200. 

The Wii selling more than the PS3 shouldn't really be much of a surprise.  It has been outselling both the PS3 and 360 for many months now(I don't know extactly how long).   I think the only real surprise was that the Wii was outsold by everything(with the obvious exclusion of the GBA and Gamecube) in America, according to the sales charts.

1.) 249$ price is ALREADY MASS MARKET price.

1.) $250 is accepted as mass market price because of Nintendo. :)

2.)  or you need to step into reality..... and goddamn playa... step out your house  and interact with human's for once in your life... not from behind a computer... might I add is where you shine :)

For those who think, that PS3 at 249$-299$ price will sell much worse then Wii, are just haters.

Much worse? No. I think it would sell better.

If stand alone blu ray players were also 249-299... I think it would sell worse then the Wii.

I also think if this was the case Sony would be out of buisness.  I mean Microsoft could give away 900 dollars with every purchase of a 1K comouter... I don't think it'd be the smartest thing to do though.

In the future I don't think it will outsell the wii because the only way i could see that happening at the 250-299 future pricepoint is if blu-ray players were more expensive then the PS3.

With the Blu-ray war over it's only a matter of time before the blu assosiation turn on each other.

With that being the case, i imagine the wii will be chaper, even if it wasn't im not sure it'd match sales.

Everytime I see your name here, the intelligence of the conversation drops way off.  Go away.
