Pachter: Natal Just 50USD, 250USD for Xbox360 with 250gb and Natal Next Year

From industrygamers.com:
[QUOTE]
As for pricing, each has to keep the consumer's cost relatively low in order to achieve broad penetration. I think that Natal will cost $50, as it only really involves a camera (a three-lensed camera, but a camera nonetheless). The EyeWand [PS3], on the other hand, involves a camera and two controllers, so it may be slightly more expensive. I would be surprised if the EyeWand retails for more than $100. Neither impacts the other, as neither is intended to compete with the other.

I think Natal will do better for two reasons: first, it is likely to be lower cost because less hardware is involved; second, it is likely to be bundled with all new Xbox 360s, ensuring a broader penetration. Keep in mind that Microsoft has another price cut in its pocket, and that the company is not afraid to subsidize something if it deems it important. I could see a $50 price cut next year, accompanied by an upgrade to the HDD to 250Gb and the inclusion of Natal. Yes, I said a $249.99 Xbox 360 with a 250Gb hard drive and Natal included.

R U JOKING ?
it would be a shell shocker if it got sold for 50 bucks.
a bundle is a possible look. i dnt know abt 249.99, lets see..
how much does those racing wheel control cost, how much does the guitar hero bundle cost ? about $100.
i think thats something more likely to be a price, i could be wrong.

wait & see.... cool.gif
