原文:Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has expressed his disappointment in the lack of price cut announcements made the three platform holders at E3 this year.
Neither Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo made any move to change the price points of any of their hardware platforms, a move which Kotick feels is out of step with the consumer in tricky economic conditions.
"I was disappointed not to see any sort of aggressive price cutting," he told Bloomberg. "Of all the things that the hardware companies need to be doing right now, it’s recognising the diffi***ies of the economy and pricing their hardware appropriately."
Kotick joins a number of industry execs, not the least of which is US retailer GameStop's CEO Dan DeMatteo, who has regularly talked up the chances of price cuts for hardware.
But while Microsoft already has the lowest-priced next-gen console on the market, and Sony is widely expected to make an announcement on the PlayStation 3 at this year's TGS, Nintendo has taken the unusual step of increasing the price of the Wii in a bid to stave off the effects of the strengthening yen.
翻译:Activision CEO Bobby Kotick 对今年E3期间BIG 3没有任何一家公布降价表示失望。
微软、索尼和任天堂都没有采取硬件降价的行动,而Kotick认为在目前的经济环境下这应该是必要的行动。
“我很失望没有看见富有进攻性的降价措施”,他说,“硬件商现在应该做的就是适应金融危机,把价格降到合适”
Kotick不是唯一一这么说的个业内人士,至少零售商GAMESTOP的CEO Dan DeMatteo也讨论过硬件降价的可能性。
但是事实是现在微软的家用机已经是市场上最低价的次世代机,而索尼被广泛认为将在今年TGS上宣布PS3降价,甚至任天堂采取了不同寻常的涨价措施来应对强势日元的影响(译者注:不明原文此处想要表达什么。。没逻辑)。. |
