Forums - Sales - Will the Xbox360 Arcade @ $200 steal 500,000 sales from the PS2 in 2008?

360 Arcade is more likely to pick up the 20,000 PS2s dropped by Wii when it stole the other 480,00 first...



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

can the ps2 get a price cut?????

I would think the PS2 costs less than $75 to make, considering OEM prices, etc.

Ouch.  Yeah, I'd really like to see the 360 take some huge mainstream strides, and at 200 it's poised to do so... but who can deny the juggernaut that is the Wii.

Even at a higher price point the Wii just commands so much more mainstream attraction.

PS2 sales will continue to decline dramatically, and the 360 arcade will see a piece of that action, but I think the Wii's piece will just continue to get bigger.
