Analyst predicts $200 Revolution

Money. Lots of it.

According to a Game Shout article, an analyst going by the name of PJ McNealy (isn't that a cartoon character?) was recently seen bursting forth from his poorly lit office, waving a printed pie chart above his head and loudly proclaiming that the Nintendo Revolution would be launching at the extremely attractive price of 200 of your American dollars. We're not entirely sure how he came to this conclusion, but it matches up with past internet murmurs, as well as Nintendo's low tech, low cost approach to designing the console.

Though the words of an analyst should never be taken as fact, we believe this price is not only likely, but essential. Launching at a mere $200 instantly solves a lot of Nintendo's potential problems, allowing them to vastly undercut their competition--even the PSP. This strategy would finely compliment their mantra of being so different as to not compete with the 360 or the PS3. At that price, people wouldn't think too hard about buying their fancy next-gen console and a Revolution.
