Recent strong sales of higher-priced PlayStation 3 models may be an indication that Sony Corp does not need to cut prices of the flagship video game console soon, a U.S. executive said on Thursday.
When Sony lowered U.S. prices of the PlayStation 3 last November, it was surprised to see that consumers bought as many $500 models as $400 models, said Scott Steinberg, vice president of product marketing for Sony Computer Entertainment America.
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

They should concentrate on reducing the cost of their SKUs, bring out a new one to replace 80GB (news of that already in recent FCC filing), and release the DS3 for North America before they attempt another price cut. I think Hirai was right that there's no point in a price cut without the software to back it up, so they should wait for at least MGS4, KZ2, or LBP before doing so.
its cuz ps3 is awesome. 10 million sold !!!!!!!
Otherwise they would lose their chance of emulating the PS2. Yes its selling but its still not at an affordable price to the mass consumer. They need to drop to 300 this year. I would be very disappointed if they don't.
Companies who get comfortable in the front seat don't stay there for long.
Sony needs to do everything in their power to get more consoles in homes, and if they can afford a price drop, then they should do it. Even $50 would be great. Not every price drop has to be $100. They've got to find a way to keep this momentum going, and if Home isn't coming out anytime soon (who knows), a price drop would really help.
Still should drop it to $299 when GTA4 or Home comes out and have a big promotional thing. Blu-ray has won so they're guaranteed royalties from that and can take bigger risks. Beating MS currently. Just need to start chipping away at Nintendo's illegitimate lead.
