Re:Pride cometh before a fall... (Score 1)

I was talking about this with my Japanese roommate. I can hardly believe how much they are selling the PS3 for, but my roomate was unphased. He was saying that Sony always charges alot in the beginning. He knew he was going to get one, but it seemed like he was going to wait for the price to drop a bit. The reasons for wanting one was that there are some games he wants, that only play on PS2 and 3. I asked him about the Wii and he said it was a good console, but not what he looks for in gaming. He justified the price by explaing all the PS3 came with. Japanese look at electronics differently than we do I think. I'm sure Sony is catering more to their Japanese customers with this.
