With the current prices I don't see a price cut happening. If there is one at most the Arcade to $179 and the Elite to $249. However I am sure they well just bundle a couple of games for free like they have always done.

This is what I would see. A very small possibility of any more price cuts from anyone. Nintendo has a bigger chance of cutting its price before MS does again.

I expect value added moves from all three through the rest of this year. Bundles, other options, etc. Then after March 2010 we'll see cuts from all three.

The elite already got snipped and the pro is discontinued so the arcade is the next logical thing to be cut.

I would expect cuts around March of next year as well.

If they really want to cut the Arcade Price hopefully could someone explain me why they just raised the Price for the Arcade it makes absolutely no sense. I would say no Sony and MS Price Cuts atleast the next 9-12 months. They dont cut the Price every 6 months.

i see a elite at 249 and arcade at 179 soon like during the holidays or sometime after

I doubt

but IF they are completely crushed by the 199$ Wii

then they may drop the price



Time to Work !

I'm literally dumbfounded at people that say the price will drop again this year or anytime soon. I'm not sure what you guys are basing your logic on (the ps3 fanboys i understand tho). It's tempting to pass you guys off as just incredible foolish....or maybe it's cause taken many business/economics/accounting classes but there is no reason for the x360 to drop it's price...PS3 Slim or not.

They have the lowest price on console on the market already and we are in a recession, it is doing fine. They are up YOY compared to last year. They have plenty of games coming out. These are common sense things... do you guys even consider these things when you create a topic of discussion?

Good to c that there r some sane person on this board... fanboy dont remember that corporation do not live in a do n die way, the way of fanboys. It is all about profit for corporations.. even if Sony outsell them by a million unit each month for the next 4 months they r not going to cut the price n go deeper into negativity to win some market share.. Market share is a distant second thing to the profit. and for MS this XBOX division is not their main priority n they have lot of other areas to look n that is one of the reason i feel they let so many game studios to go in the recession. If it was so important for MS to win market share than MS would not have shed their first party game studios, i dont think these studios were eating 4 billion of profit they r making in one quarter. (i m not sure abt per quarter profit figure).
