Forums - Sales - Sonys pricecut is a sign of weakness

i just dont understand a PS3 pricecut is good since it will be great for FFXIII and GT5 but a wii price cut shows a complete lack of faith in NSMB. oh and like 95% of the stuff in the OP is a paradoy of stuff ive seen on vgchartz

dont see how thats losing
for me its great!! more money in my pocket, could care less what MS,sony and Nin makes in profit. As long as its cheap in price for myself imma happy.

imo wii SHOULD have a price cut, in canada its $279!! thats ridiculous! Also youll need more controllers as i see no point in getting a wii if your not using it for parties or playing with another. the both controllers together=$80! not including if you want 2 more....thats crazy and on top of that you'll need a game unless you just want to play wii sports forever.

wha sooooo expensive!!!
so imo wii is the most expensive, you get less for such a high price. I want wii to have a price drop but....that may not be in best favor for nintendo, could mean losing out on alot of money.

 

oh and i dont think it would mean nintendo is acting week if they slash the price, means they are acting competative...honestly why buy a wii for $279 when you can get a 360 for $299..but then again why get a 360 thats $299 when you can get a ps3 for $299....

 

edit: opps my mistake why get a 360 for $329 when you can get a ps3 for $299, not hating just seeing what has the best value for the price.



Of course its a sign of weakness, they're deadlast in the current gen console war with a 8 million gap to their closest competitor.

What? You think they're coming from a position from Stength?

As for it being a bad bussiness decision, there is a reason third party publishers went on an unprecedented mini campaign asking for a PS3 pricecut.

The economy and it's price was chocking sales potential.

You don't know what you're talkin about.




XD, and people took this seriously why???

Why is tricked???!?




Stopped reading at the bit about inFamous causing an increase in PS3 sales.

EDIT: Because I'm not in the mood for unfunny joke threads, not because I took it seriously.

just incase people dont realise it, this is a JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

seems like i will have to spell it out

im taking stuff people are saying about nintendo's price cut and applying it to sonys. hence the stupid malstrom quote about the price cut being sheer incompetence and how sales were going up on previously released title anyway. Sonys price cut is clearly a good and needed bunsiness decisions just like nintendos is


again, JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKE!

I think the problem is your joke thread is based on discussions occurring in the Nintendo forums on the site.  Most of us have never been to that part of the site.  Many of us don't wouldn't even know how to get there if we wanted to.  I went into one of the Nintendo threads once, and to be honest it was a very dark and scary place.  



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

 

 

lol no increased sales in the long run? how do you figure? The only reason people don't buy PS3's left right and centre is because it was so expensive and now it isn't too expensive.



Oh god... I have lost all faith in some users on this site.
This thread is a joke.
