Re: Why don\'t more companies do this when they launch a new console?
at launch, they will sell out of their entire stock, thus making them cheaper only lowers their revenue and doesn't increase their market share
when you are selling out of a product, you should raise the price to capture more money from the price insensitive consumers
they were selling 400k wiis no matter what in US at launch; they coulda made 100k of them gold zelda combos at $500 and that woulda made them $16million more (500-250-50-40=160 extra each * 100k)
they woulda still sold out launch day and consumers woulda been HAPPY that they had a shot at that instead of thinking NES was price gouging
