The reason being, the stores won't get as much money out of selling a cheap product. Therefore the employees will push the PS3 onto customers, telling them it's a better value because it has Blu-ray. They will also try to push PS3 units along with newly purchased HDTVs for the same reason, the Blu-ray capabilities. The more they can add to the purchase, the better. Microsoft and Sony can pay all they want to the stores to advertise their products, but in the end it's really up to how management and the employees want to sell these products onto customers. |
Yes, cuz all the customers that go shopping for a console need the employees and the management of the store to tell them what they want.
btw...retail stores make little to nothing off of selling the actual console, they make their money off the games and accessories you buy. If you follow your logic how do you explain the success of the cheaper wii and why it's always sold out?
