I think another 360 price drop will result in another small sales increase, and that the Wii price increase will actually increase Wii sales :P

No. If people want a Wii, they will buy a Wii. Price isn't everything, especially when, in gaming terms, the Wii and 360 are apples and oranges.

But, for the record, there is no way that the 360 will drop to $99. The PS2 (not even the Xbox, now that I think about it) isn't even $99!

I'm sorry I'm perpetuating this 'rumor' by bumping this thread. Sorry.

These threads by Megadude remind me an awful lot like MegaMan2's flame-bait threads.

OT: This is nothing more than a flame-bait thread. The only way you will get a new $99 360 is off a crackhead.

Yes. I have seen two other people publicly think this, but I also think he could be megaman2. But it mostly might be the name similarity, trolling, and bad grammar....

Nah. Check out Leetgeek's old posts. The similarities are amazing.

And I got the rumor here:

I didn't realise that Gamestop had changed their name to "A crackhead". I'm not responding to you anymore.
