they should have made the PS3 with an expansion slot and sell a 50$ PS2 BC board :D



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Yes, it would.

But they don't need that yet.

Not well enough in comparison to the current pricing to justify a cut...

the more important question is could Sony still make a profit from the PS2 at that price, the PS2 is really helping them out financially right now.
I really would not want a price reduction, although having it as a add on for PS3, you do realize a software emulator is planned for the PS3 at some stage, they will not do it until the full 10 years is used up for PS2, now that's what I call dedication.



it's the future of handheld

They may be able to profit at the price of $50. If they can sell DVD players for $50 nowadays im pretty sure they'd have a shot at making money with a PS2.

i'am kinda shocked that some people realy think it could sell 400k ww with a price point of 50... i mean i know its realy low but its and old console...
