Sony praises Wii too
A couple of days since Microsoft predicted that gamers will buy two consoles, the Xbox360 and the Wii, Sony tells the same, but only with that Xbox360 replaced by a PlayStation 3:
Sony executive Phil Harrison also keeps defending the price of the PS3:
And, as usual, we can conclude with some good old Microsoft-bashing:
Sony remains quite kind today...
"I think Peter Moore is exactly right. I think Nintendo will be the second system consumers purchase after PlayStation 3."
Sony executive Phil Harrison also keeps defending the price of the PS3:
"I know what Peter was getting at with his price point issue but he's not comparing apples to oranges. He's not even comparing the same kind of food products at all. It's clearly a case that PlayStation 3's price is justified by PlayStation 3's value. That's what consumers base their purchasing decisions on -- value."
