A few days ago, Microsoft lowered the price of the three models of the Xbox 360 in Japan. This Friday, the company will make prices changes to its consoles in the US and may soon do the same in Europe. It seems like a new price war was has begun. The Arcade model will be cheaper than the Wii in the US, too. These are the new prices for Microsoft’s console models:

Xbox 360 Arcade: $199
Xbox 360: $299
Xbox 360 Elite: $399

MS wants its Arcade to become the one console used by the whole family. By selling more consoles at the new price, Microsoft will try to steal the audience away from Nintendo. But many families already have become used to the Wii and its games, and the 360 does not have a Wiimote-like controller of its own. Plus, to most people, the 360 consoles are mostly for hardcore gamers. Will Microsoft get to sell more consoles during this generation than Nintendo? Will Nintendo lower the price of the Wii?

En español | In English

Hace unos pocos días, Microsoft bajó el precio de los tres modelos de la consola Xbox 360 en Japón. Por el cambio de precio, el Arcade será más barato que el Wii. Una nueva guerra de precios de consolas ha comenzado. Estos son los nuevos precios para los modelos de la consola de Microsoft:

Xbox 360 Arcade: $199
Xbox 360: $299
Xbox 360 Elite: $399

MS quiere que su Arcade se convierte en la consola usada por la familia entera. Al vender más consolas al nuevo precio, Microsoft intentará de robar la audiencia de Nintendo. Pero, varias familias ya se han acostumbrado al Wii y a sus juegos. El 360 no tiene un controlador propio similar al del Wii. Además, las consolas 360, para mucha gente, son más que todo para los jugadores hardcore. ¿Llegará Microsoft a vender más consolas en esta generación que Nintendo? ¿Bajará Nintendo el precio del Wii?
