...I get it. The $600 price tag on the PS3 is a challenge, isn't it? You HAVE to get the most expensive console to prove everyone that you're a grown-up with a paying job, so people don't think you're a loser who lives in his parents' basement. You're playing keeping-up-with-the-Joneses with video game consoles. Good God you fanboys are fucking idiots.
No, this is a clean sweep for Microsoft and Nintendo. Probably just Nintendo, since even a $250 Wii will look reasonable in comparison. Despite some of the assertions being thrown around here, the prime video game demographic is the 12-16 age group. Kids don't have $600, and parents will not shell out $600. Not when Microsoft drops the price on the Xbox just in time for the holidays, and not while Nintendo's over here with their cheap little console.
Study your history, chil'lun. You know what other console was $600? The Neo-Geo. Cut and run while you can; you're gonna have to go to Microsoft for your "grown-up" games.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
