Major PlayStation 2 Changes
Now that the next generation is completely under way, most advertising muscle and consumer interest will turn to the PS3 and its competition. This new environment will force into practice a number of PS2 adjustments to help keep it high on console sales charts.
The most obvious alteration will be the Slim PlayStation 2's suggested retail price -- it will fall to a very affordable $100. Games will drop too, with almost every new piece of software costing between $9.99 and $39.99 by autumn. Sony will try to market to existing PS2 owners and girls as well, by introducing themed systems similar to the boxes available in Japan. Pink, Blue, Powder Blue, Alien Green, Gold, and various other colors will hit the market just in time for Christmas, while controllers and memory cards stock shelves to match.
You too could own a pink PS2 in the next 12 months.
Oh, and if Sony gets really aggressive, expect to see $25 to $50-off coupons towards a PlayStation 3 as an extra promotional bonus.
