Sony says PS3 pricing is 'a challenge'

Posted on Thursday, 17 May 2007 by Covids, source: Gamesindustry
Jack Tretton, who is in charge at Sony's entertainment department in the USA, admitted that the high price of the Playstation 3 is "a challenge", but that the software available for the console is worth that price.

According to Reuters, Tretton conceded that the PS3's higher cost has been an obstacle, observing, "There's no question that that's a challenge."

However, Tretton continued, "Hopefully content helps to deliver the proof points and the justification behind the cost of the machine."

This statement was given a few days after revealing the fact that Sony had some serious losses. It's no secret that the company had to invest a lot into the console, but in the long run they would be able to earn back their money, even when the console was priced a bit cheaper.

So, could you drop the price a bit please? Pretty please?
