Tech: Took long enough: Sony finally cuts the PS3’s price
- $599 The cost of the Sony Playstation 3 at launch; it’s gone down a little since then, but was sold at a huge loss at launch.
- $249 The launch price of the Nintendo Wii, which managed to sell like hotcakes AND be profitable at launch.
- $299 The price of the PS3 as of tomorrow. It only took Sony about two and a half years to get it priced this cheap. source
