wii at luanch: $249.99
Xbox 360: $399.99
PS3: $599.99
I think thats why, also people think its a nex gen experience and are buying the cheaper console, casual gamers are also heading towards the wii because of its controller.

The point that I trying to make, is the Wii is much of a leap in technology over the cube from a CPU/GPU hardware standpoint.
The motion controller and Wii sports got the non-gamers into the market.

Because people wanted a cheap DVD player, and a good gaming console, not to mention it was not priced to high for people not to buy it.
Which is why I say if PS3 were at $299.99 it would be a different story for nintendo, it could either be postive or negative for them, and Im leaning towards the negative.

The mass market has not completly upragaded to HD, and are not interested in a blu-ray player, not to mention most people cant waste 400 bucks on a gaming console, with a blu-ray player. Sure it may be a great deal, but its still to much money.

See this proves thatprice isn't everything you say. There are many outcomes due to things like dvd , and such. You can't jus t assume that if the ps3 was cheaper all of the casuals would get it. Then you would notice the attach rate , being smaller , because of the lack of casual games for these casuals.
More utility than the competition, at a cheaper price, imo.
It's like Denzel Washington in American Gangster. Selling uncut for half price.
