Forums - Sony - When the PS3 is $199, What will happen?

Why would they lower the price if they're already super-successful with the $299 tag?

well some think it's success is only temporary and it's still not kicking the 360's ass in the US

Only a minor sales boost. $299 is generally seen as an "ok" price tag for the ps3 so many will adopt it at that price. When it gets to $199, I dont think there will be as many people who want ps3s and still haven't gotten it because its too expensive

there is always more! look at ps2!

A sales explosion. Too many cats doubting the beast that is the Playstation.



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Slaughterhouse Is The Sh*t  .... NOW ........ B_E_L_I_E_V_E

I think when the PS3's price goes down to $199, .........people will buy PS3's for $199.

There will be more..no doubt and lots would be repeat purchaers because many ps3s are sure to have died by then but the boost wont be as great as the TC seems to expect because I think the ps3 will be hitting its sales prime at $299. It can only come close from here on out but probably wont surpass what it accomplishes at $299 + slim except maybe we have a "slimmer" in the future lol.

Can ps3 beat its JP sa;les last week for the rest of this gen? I say no.

I think there will be a stampeed
