Nintendo won\'t go to $149 until at least August.. mark my words.

GameCube is selling very well right now.. (except in Japan.. but Xbox is still far worse there)

Analysts have estimated that at the initial retail price of $299, Microsoft has been losing anywhere between $76 and $105 on every Xbox sold


OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!  so that goes up tp $176-$205 lost on every xbox sold

at 1000 units thats $176,000 pissed away
by the time they sell 1 million units [long time], they will be down 176 million clams

I hope Sony lowers the price on the games like Hari said.
That’s the only thing I care about right now (since Ive had my PS2 since launch (24th November))..

That’s some interesting numbers mm.. I wonder how the shareholders (like Bobo said) will react when they realize they wont get that kind of money back [from the Xbox] for a looooong time..

Why not just try to  enjoy all the freaking consoles and leave that other BS alone? I mean some of you people on this forum want the box to fail so bad and thats sad.

I mean all that "ps2killah" mess is just bull. Grow up people. I men babbling back and forth on which console sucks is just stupid. They both are great and all of you just look like fools.

It\'s sad people just can\'t sit down and enjoy the games what if we didn\'t have xbox,ps2, or gamecube then were would we be?

199 is great I hope xbox sales more console because it is a great console. I want a gamecube even though I am not so hyped about the controller. I am still holding my breath on Nintendo to drop down to 99$:D Even if they don\'t lower it I will still get one.

Uh Oh :eek:

Now you\'ve gone and done it.;)

No room for reasonable behavior when it comes to bashing MS to death.

*back on topic.   quote from ign

"SOFTWARE PERCENTAGES
(4/15 to 4/21)
Pretty much the same as before, although strong sales of Xbox software give the system a 1.1% share this time.

PS2: 62.6%
Game Boy Advance: 10.3%
PSX: 15.5%
GameCube: 4.2%
Dreamcast: 6.3%
Xbox: 1.1%"


JEBUS!  im actually starting to feel bad for the xbox
what does IGN mean by "this time"
was it LOWER than 1.1% before?

I agree with Quddus for the most part.  Yes, PS2 is killing xbox but theres no need to bash xbox to all hell.  Some of you guys need to grow up and start just enjoying the things you like and not bashing the things you don\'t.
