gecko89 Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 2 minutes ago, Mr. Comingle said: They should just increase the MRP instead of doing underhanded scams like this to inflate software sales numbers to make the company look better to investors than it is (this does not imply the company is doing badly). If they want to make a quick buck by exploiting shortages, they should be upfront about it. I'd rather they just increase the price by 2.5k rather than try to shift a 2.5k game for 5k. Just creates unnecessary effort of having to sell it. Actually it's 20USD less than Console MRP + Game MRP. Increasing base price of the console will only piss off everyone, even the media will drag them out. This is more like a safe way to make more money, like any corporate company would do if they can, but not everyone has that kind of market power. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that digital sales are higher compared to physical as per last annual report. Sshhh... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are bringing USD into it if the math is as simple as INR X + INR Y = INR X+Y? Apple increased their prices recently. Microsoft did too. I guess Sony doesn't have that kind of market power in a market where it has 90% share as per expert analysts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original post was not from India. In India it isn't even an official bundle, sellers basically slapping the game to a console and asking to buy both or no sell. Apple and Microsoft are greedy, and so is Sony in their own way. I don't know what the f*** you are reading to get that 90% share number.

And no the conversation was not about US prices solely if you actually read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did read, snakes post was actually EU nations, not USD but the same applies, they're not selling game+console price either.

radicaldude Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 Some are equating forced bundling by retailers (that's happening in india) with an official bundle by sony. Next they'll say sony is charging 75k for PS5, controllers and a batch of games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radicaldude Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 (edited) But i agree with one point. Instead of giving a title, they should rather give out ps plus sub for 3/4 months. Or Bundle the system with a physical copy Edited June 28 by radicaldude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microsoft follows us pricing (thus increasing dollar value will lead to increase in prices) sony follows european pricing in india, thats why no change till now. Ps: read this on twitter.
