| unfortunately it is not going to curve the situation. I think many people are going to look at it as people got the wrong system.
It may have worked better if there wasn't the Wii alternative. I don't recall, but nothing was launched around the PS2. The Dreamcast was a good six months before. The GameCube and Xbox were about a year later. So it was the only new "toy" on the market.
What is funny with the situation is that apparently there was more people who wanted the unit to resale than maybe those who wanted to play it; I'm sure there were enough who wanted to play it, just not enough to with the money or money and willingness. I know one of my friends who use to get systems on launch days will not anymore because of all the hassels, time, and lack of qaulity games at launch, and, thanks to the 360, build quality. |
