I'm not too sure on the price drop for 360, they're losing money already with units sold, so i'm expecting a pack-in. Still 300 for the core, but it comes with a game or two is my bet,
if it's 250, why not spend an extra 50 and get the better looking graphics? That's what everyone is saying, but the factor of the controller, and that we haven't seen final hardware with more secrets to be revealed either about the controller or the actual graphical capabilities of the system and you have yourself a catalyst for a major launch even at the 250 point. if anyone has seen the the new zelda movies from gametrailers its obvious that 360-like graphics are possible but here's the kicker: It looks exactly the same on GC, just in 4:3. TP is afterall a port and it looks that good already, using a logic and knowing at the very least that Wii is twice as powerful as the GC then we should be in for a treat by the time the demo kiosks hit stores.
As it stands right now, nintendo could go for the 250 point, but that wouldn't be very exciting or cause a feeding frenzy for the console and it would probably make Nintendo's goal of getting a larger installed user base than 360 in the first 2 months or so of its release more of an uphill battle
