Forums - Gaming - $100 dollar 360 price drop in Australia. Core now the price of a wii

Goddbless on 14 August 2007

Now MS needs to have a price drop on their games. I think if 3rd party games were $50 and 1st party $40 they would sell more software. Even if it all came down to $50 standard I think they would move more software.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Acording to this thread:

the core does not match the price of the Wii in Australia ($348 AUD).

Maybe oftopic, but in Norway the Core-version is actually cheaper than Wii. The Wii has a MSRP of $430 while the XBOX360 Core has a MSRP of $365.

All prices are converted from NOK

This article about the price cut has some GfK numbers in it, although it is not clear up to which date. But seeing the numbers they must be recent.
