Oops, I meant this to be in the "PS2 drops to $199. Sony, Microsoft surrender. " thread!!!
can anyone switch it for me?
Like the last post of the OTHER thread said;
You see, Nintendo has better game technology, but no DVD which brings the price down. I don’t need a DVD. And I don’t see why Nintendo is perceived as a kid machine. It has a wider audience with game both kids and adults can play
