Rumour: Move Priced


Recommended Posts

Possibly the biggest stumbling block facing Sony and their upcoming Move device is how the company prices the motion controller add-on. Good news for gamers, however, as according to renowned bastion of hard facts, The Sun, Sony's Wii-rival will hit shelves at the sweet spot of "about £45." (€52)

It makes sense for Sony to charge as little as possible for its new technology in an effort to attract a greater number of consumers and hence compete with Nintendo in the upcoming Waggle Wars™. Previous reports hinted that the Move could retail at up to £100/€115, a figure many would-be adopters were turned off by.

If The Sun's report is accurate (and there is nothing to suggest this isn't just wild speculation on their behalf) it looks like Sony are prepared to swallow a considerable hit in order to get as many Moves into people's homes as possible later this year.

It's The Sun! But I'd enjoy that price....

Hmm, not bad, more than a normal PS3 controller.

Good though if that is in fact the general kit of a Move Controller and the Camera, and better if it includes a really basic game to show it off.

It's already been stated that the basic/main pack is the move wand/camera and a game.

Of course things will be sold separately for those already owning a camera/wanting more wands.

?45 is decent price for Move + Wand + Camera (and a game (even without a game its decent price compared to the Wii motes and nunchucks etc))

I know they have the starter kit that includes the Move, Camera and a game.

But its not stated if this is indeed the price of the starter kit, or just one Move controller, which is why I was saying its a good price if it is the starter kit.
