1. Comment - PS3 Sales Dropping in Japan

   (Jan 22, 2007 - 10:33 AM)

   Another problem for SONY and PlayStation 3 is the fact that SONY is already losing money, meaning they can't afford a price drop anytime soon. PS3 is somewhat more advanced than Xbox 360, but not that much to justify the high price of the console.
   
   Back in the day, SEGA made a mistake by NOT implementing a DVD player to the console (although it made perfect sense back then when games were not larger then 1GB). These days, SONY made a mistake by implementing Blu-Ray drive which really isn't necessary for a game console, but is really convenient if you have a HDTV and you wannna watch some HD movies. HDTV is still far from a widespread standard, not to mention how expensive Blu-Ray drive is...

   History repeats itself! Let's get back to 1994. - SEGA Saturn vs SONY Playstation. PS1 wins despite being technologically inferior to Saturn because game developers had a hard time making games for its dual-processor architecture (two CPUs working in Master/Slave mode...), plus Saturn price was 399$ vs PS1 299$. Sounds familiar, eh?
   
   Also, one may notice that every 10 years big companies rise (and fall) - in the 70's ATARI was #1. 10 years later, NINTENDO took away its crown in the 80's. Again, 10 years later (90's) SONY defeated both NINTENDO and SEGA. That was in 1995. Now it's SONY's turn to step down from #1 place...
   
   In 1999./2000. SONY killed one of the best consoles of all time - SEGA DREAMCAST - just because PS2 had a DVD player and because of HUGE hype SONY built up around PS2.
