I happen to trust IGN reviews. Hell their review was worse than Eurogamer. Face it, GT PSP isn't a very good effort. Well, maybe effort isn't the correct word, but that mode should be there.
The DS hasn't had a price cut because they keep rolling out new models. The phat, the slim, now the DSi. Furthermore, the only competition for DS is the PSP however they're different markets and so they don't really compete with each other directly. They have their own following.
In referencing cars, I mean if you buy a year end close-out car it's cheaper than it was when it rolled into the dealership. The same can be said about televisions, computers, anything involving technology.
The high def TV I bought over the winter is hundreds of dollars cheaper now. I don't think people would turn away from the same model now because it's cheaper.

No thank you. I'm a gamer, not a market strategist. I'm not going to buy a book t...
Strategies are just outlines. They don't have to be followed to a T. The Blue Ocean Strategy is sort of a rehash of other ideas. I did some reading because you talk about the Blue Ocean Strategy as if every gamer knows what it is.
@ below:
I didn't know this was a college, let alone a Valued Innovation website. You write an article based off a book and only give cursory information as to what the Blue Ocean Strategy is, and how Nintendo goes against it.
What a whiney writer!
Sounds cool!
I like the sparkles, it makes me feel like a princess
Hmmm, I've never played Star Ocean. Are they any good or just typical JRPGs?
How would you know about stupid wrestling figures unless you buy them? Hell I haven't even heard of the company. You must be a fan if you know what they produce. LOL
Maybe I'll buy a Wii for the exclusives, but probably not. After playing PS3 in HD for so long, I can't even think of taking a huge step backward in graphics.
Hell, if Live were free, I'd pick up a 360
I think it would be beneficial to own both consoles. Alas, I only own PS3 for now
I'm referring to hardware sales not including FF bundles. Of course they'll sell a load of bundles, but you can't say that FF13 is the reason people are buying the bundles. Consumers may just buy a bundle because it has "one" game they want to play. Maybe they also want to play others but those games haven't been released in a bundle so far.

FF13 is also on 360, it's not exclusive
.
I doubt it. I think the slim and price drop will sell the PS3s, not FF13. I mean the gamers in Japan will probably pick up a PS3 before the FF game hits.
I still have to play Pixel Junk Eden. I bought it but I haven't played it since I got my new TV and my old TV was too small and I couldn't see what was happening (old CRT-HDTV)
I just hope there's no screen tearing.
Holy crap that looks awesome! Looks like building blocks :)
OMG I just ordered a used DSi and Scribblenauts from Amazon! OMG OMG I must be crazy! I threw it on a credit card and I shouldn't have. I'm in too much debt as it is. Oh well, it'll be a blast!
