If all of them cost 200, many people would probably buy the Wii and then either the 360 or the PS3.

IF the specs were EXACTLY the same as they are now for each system the ps3 would be out of stock everywhere as it totally dominates. wii would be 2nd xbox360 3rd. the ps3 -as specced right now- for 200 would destroy the competition handily

I mean it's kind of an odd question because the very nature of the system depends on it's prices. Meaning you can't simply compare these packages without factoring in their real prices. For example ps3 would sell huge at 200 dollars, but the bigger the ps3 became at 200 bucks the more trouble Sony would be in because at 200 dollars they'd be losing so much money on every system that regardless of steep royalties or not they'd never recover. But regardless I think I understand your hypothetical scenario, how would systems sell if price wasn't an issue? I know I'd own all three systems. Many people would simply own all three. Think about it if you could get all three systems for the price of one ps3 who wouldn't? I think people would buy the ps3 simply to have a cheap blu-ray player. But again my point stands comparing systems without factoring in real price is like comparing systems without their components. Like what is ps3 didn't have blu-ray, or Nintendo didn't have is the Wii-mote.

It's also unfair because at 200 dollars your only taking off 50 bucks for the Wii while your off 400 dollars off the ps3. To use percentages if the ps3 became 200 dollars percetange wise thats' a 1/3 of the price. If the Wii was a 1/3 of it's price it'd be $83. Or cheaper then 2 games. So of course it's easy to say the most expensive system will win as it's the that has the most to gain in this scenario.

Even if all 3 were 200 dollars, I'd still get the Wii first because it's offering me the most at this point and for the foreseeable future. :) Then I'd get a PS3 just for Armored Core 4, and I'd still have no reason to get a 360. ^o^;; Edit : I still use the d-pad for AC games, and since the 360 has a horrendous d-pad, I have no reason to pick the 360 version over the PS3 version. I'd rather have a good d-pad than rumble, but I'd honestly rather have both. ~_~

fooflexible - first off. The point is, "if all consoles were the same price." I'd buy all 3. I would have bought all 3 at once... for the cost of my PS3. The real question is. Wich one would you buy if they all cost 400$ (happy middle price between highest console, and lowest console) I buy any console I wanna play with at 200$.
