PS3 Next Price Drop Waiting For PlayStation 4 Announcement

Published by:

According to many analysts Sony is refusing to drop the price on the PlayStation 3 this holiday season, as they don’t want to cut it again when the PS4 is announced.

Mike Hickey of National Capital Alliance said Sony is not in a position to take anymore risks.

“They’re in a position now where they don’t want to take any more losses. We expect there will likely be a PS4 next year, and I think that’s where they’re putting the majority of their resources.   “Clearly they’re not showing willingness to drive velocity with a price cut, but their competitors are. If they cut the price now, they’ll just have to cut it again when they announce PS4.   “So maybe they are thinking ‘Let’s limp this through until the announcement’ and then they’ll do the next price cut similar to what Nintendo did with Wii in front of Wii U,” Hickey said.

Im doing motion capture only.”   “I can 100% say my voice will not be involved in this. I dont even know what the title is, they are all very secretive and sometimes even the scenes I act out I dont even know the full story, because they want to keep it secret.2   “I suppose it is fine to mention I am working on it, everybody knows Kojima is making something now, and I posted the photo on my page here with him. The only thing is that I cant ever answer any questions about it or talk about, not for sometime.”
