Raise the price £20 as planned and bundle in Wii Sports Resort as well as Wii Sports. You keep your value high and generate interest in consumers as planned.

Analyst also probably ignored the fact that they massively ramped up the supply chain which required capital and will have hit their margins.

Nah - that's pokemon not selling by the bucketload...

I play games on my Wii & DS, the house PS3 is for movies! I've never understood why having optional decent motion controls is seen as a bad thing, the pointer is invaluable for web surfing (and arcade shooters) and the separate controls are pretty comfortable. I have over 15 Wii games, very few of them are mini games and most of them are exclusive.

Personally I wish that there were games that took advantage of the PS3's analogue buttons as well as Mad Maestro on the PS2 did. The six axis tilt function is for shaking in Pain and nothing else...

I'd always thought that the so called top of the range Elite X360 would have had all the options like WiFi built in, but it wasn't too be. Maybe the rumours about the extra heat build up it would produce if built in were true. Either way it's an obstacle to the consumer and with online being the big selling point it's a shame that the £99 DS has something the £230 X360 has to sell for an extra £50.

Still, given the choice between the 360s line up and the PS3s I'd choose the 360, it just has the more appealing exclusives. I can see myself picking one up at the new prices at some point, but at the moment I still have a Wii/DS backlog to work through - never mind the last gen games!
