Best Buy slashes 10 bucks from PS3 and Wii titles
This comes in a bit awkward after our earlier report that a suggested retail price of US$ 60 for premium next-gen titles may not be sustainable. According to analyst Jeetil Patel of Deutsche Bank, they are questioning if the appetite of the consumers are strong enough to be able for publishers to make software sales. Patel added that they are giving the craze until April of this year.
With that said, retail store Best Buy announced that we will be seeing discounts for Wii and PS3 titles within this week. In case you haven’t bought Call of Duty 3 and Ridge Racer 7 yet, this may be the best time to acquire them as both games will have a US$ 10 price slash. Wii titles Super Swing Golf and Need for Speed Carbon, likewise, will be dropped to just US$ 39.99 each.
News like this are oftentimes good but for early birds like us here, it kinds of leave a bitter taste in the mouth. A drop in prices so early feels like a system is not doing well or the games were overpriced to begin with. Oh well, what are we saying anyway? A price cut is a price cut. No need to discuss anything further.
