PS2 Discount: Will They, Or Won't They?
05-MAR-03
In separate presentations at a Bear Stearns conference in Florida, executives from Electronic Arts and Activision touched on one of the more pressing issues of this spring—whether Sony will decide to cut the price of the PlayStation 2. Although both companies are hoping the expected $49 cut (which will probably be reciprocated by equal discounts for the Xbox and GameCube) will happen sooner than later, they disagree on whether Sony will bite the bullet quite yet.
On the fence is Robert Kotick, CEO of Activision, who discussed the future direction of his company at the conference. "All the indications that we have from the folks at Sony are that they don't feel the need," Kotick said. "I think that probably will have a negative impact on the market." The CEO also said that if Sony decides not to go for the $149 price, or instead opts for a more ambivalent $169 or $179 price point, then the industry could have trouble meeting its own growth forecasts for 2003.
Electronic Arts chief financial officer Warren Jenson, however, was more enthusiastic, saying he was expecting Sony to drop to the $149 point. If that happens, he said, then the Xbox would likely go to $149, while Nintendo's GameCube may be forced to hit the $99 point to compete.
All this comes as the next generation of consoles from all three hardware suppliers is expected to come out in a scant few years. "Today we're already in discussion with Sony, with Microsoft, with Nintendo on the next generation of consoles," Jenson said. "When do we think the transition would occur? Sometime around 2005, 2006—that's really Sony's call to make."
