Marie Antoinette’s Let Them Eat Cake
![]() |

Question: Is Sony the most arrogant videogame company out there?
After 9 years, they are *pleased* to announce they're dropping the price of the PS2 to $99.99, down from $129.99.
This is akin to Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake."
Who gives a damn? I can probably find used PS2s for 30 bucks on Craigslist. How arrogant and out of touch is Sony?
Answer: SONY is the epitome of everything that's wrong with the industry. Every single decision is all about the corporate mind-set and improving stock-holders wealth. Whereas other companies like SEGA and Nintendo are actively working and investing in areas to expand the entire industry with new and innovative ideas, SONY is only trying to figure out how to squeeze the most money out of ideas that have already been proven.
I think in the long run we'll see that SONY's approach = FAIL. And that the advances that more innovative companies put forth will actually do more to contribute to stock-holder wealth.
