U.S. Consumers "Prepared" To Pay For PS3
There's been a lot of complaining about the high price of Sony's latest console, and yet, this survey indicates it's a lot of hot air. People aren't nearly as put off as you might think.
According to a new 100-page media report, released today by a small research firm, the majority of U.S. consumers don't have any problem with the PS3 price points ($500 and $600). Sony has repeatedly said they're not concerned about the retail price of their system, and it appears any concern may have been unnecessary.
These results came from a sample of 2,000 online interviews conducted with 12-54-year-olds and weighted against 2004 census data. The report also points towards the possibility of the Nintendo Wii "playing spoiler" to Microsoft and Sony by targeting a wide demographic ("across all ages and genders"), in contrast to strictly younger or older hardcore gamers.
