PS3 didn't sell well enough...

[The Brick]

..so they made it more expensive.

http://uk.theinquirer.net/?article=37266

hallelujah!

 

[Pulse]

I bet they still won't even be able to break-even.

 

[<RJMC>]

dam then how the hell they plan on selling?

sonyexec:"the ps3 sold badly,now what are we going to do?"
kent kutaragi:"lets increase the price! that will make the people see is somehting very gooooood!"

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Sony. You. Dumb. Mother. F*ckers.

You. F*cking.

FAIL.

meh

 

[Doppelgofer]

spasticated? yes

 

[Asus]

If the price at those 2 retailers are an indication of Sony's actual stance with the PS3 in Canada then that is pretty bad.

Although they only say it is with 2 retailers and the 699 price in Canada is still lower than what the USA pays and what the UK will pay.

 

[Shamrock]

I swear I read an article that said Sony didn't raise the price in Canada and that the retailers actually did for reasons unknown.

 

[giant384]

they already lost about 250 on each console. why not more?

 

[destrukt]

I'm pretty sure this was proven wrong a few days ago and don't ever read The Inquirer.

[smwScott]

This is just wrong, it was only a couple stores that actually raised the price. Had nothing to do with Sony. Not that logic or facts should be any reason to deter you.

I'll still get one when the price lowers a bit and (more importantly) when some serious games come out.

Agreed, but out of every 10 things i buy 3 are useless to the point where i dont open the product for weeks or never even use it. I am how ever controlling that the past few months.

19 Live with parents i pay my Internet bill and electricity. Work and spend the rest of my money on stuff i want. Not rich, not spoiled, and sure as hell don't steal. I work for everything i own. I just so happen to make just enough to afford that and have some left over.

 

[Atomic_Piggy]

So, your job pays well. Really well?
Haha, Sony are such idiots. They clearly have lost all logic and reason.

 

[Jintor]

I remember somewhere Sony announcing they 'Won the console wars' because they had the biggest selling console for Christmas 2006.

Turns out it was the Playstation 2.

WARNING I may or may not have just made the whole thing up. I'm not sure anymore.
