History Of Console Prices: Ps3 Isn't The Highest.

[DealBot]

This post on Curmudgeon stacks up historic console prices, in both relative and absolute terms. 600 clams is still expensive, but it's not the highest.

True, but still it can be too high if the Wii will be much cheaper...

Yeah either way it'll be expensive. But it is hard to say if it is a good business plan to go with the blu-ray dvd until the other two systems finally come out.

An interesting article. On the relative price chart that adjusts for inflation you can almost see the price line at which systems are destined to fail. Some of the lower priced systems failed too of course. I'd love to see one of these charts for handheld systems as well. Why do people always give handhelds the short end of the stick?
