That's a pretty ridiculous statement. $600 is 150% percent of $400. If someone -- especially a parent -- is used to spending $300-400 on a console gaming system and then sees one at $600 (remember the NeoGeo?) they will be very hesitant to buy it. The Wii is having a lot of success because of its much more reasonable price and higher availability. Sony is going to need to work a lot in the next year if they are going to "win" this round of the console wars, much less the HD war. They JUST released their standalone Blu-ray player and it is still twice as expensive as the Toshiba HD-DVD equivalent.
