That's pretty insane if it's true. Probably a typo though.

I was a bit wishi washi when I first heard the news I honestly hope this is true. I am starting to believe it. I had a feeling it would happen. Sony's Blu Ray player dropped from $999 to $799 and then @ best buy they had it for $599.

PS3 could use a price cut then the PS3 will keep its exclusives. Ps3 might be pretty hard to come buy. the Wii is a BUNDLE with extra controller , games, and a charger stand

Either way its not a typo (the ps3 or the wii). If you read the first link he posted (which it looks like many of you didn't) it says the reason the wii price is higher is because they (gamestop) are selling it as a bundle which includes multiple games...........*ed* excluding blackhorsemen. :)

That Wii price is not incorrect. Gamestop.com only sells Wii bundles, and that is the price they go for.

EDIT: Nvm lol. Gamestop does only sell Wii bundles, but they are like $460-70, not $430

Even if the Wii is a bundle I just don't see a price drop for the Playstation 3 happening any time soon

I hope that isn't Gamestop's way to cover up their blunder

Clearly Sony won't drop the PS3 price by $200, that's really steep. I think it either was a typo or just done purposefully to bring attention to their site but who knows.

I'm beginning to wonder if this wasn't just an accidental leak. I've was reading that someone was talking to a manager at circuit city about how they got a memo about a price drop like this at the end of July. It probably is just a rumor but who knows. Guess we wait till E3.

this reminds me of when best buy showed a gold membership to xboxlive gold for like $20.00 then i go to best buy and they have a sign up saying that in the paper from whenever they showed the xboxlive gold membership for 20.00 was an accident and it was regular price.stores are good for doing that to people they know how to get people inside the store then they dont have what you wanted so they will try to sell you something else which is sad but you can get the said item for the price they so it for and if they dont tell them that you want to talk to a manager of the store cause it goes to policy that the customer is always right.
