Times 2

After driving lessons yesterday, I was given the chance to finally have a face-to-face encounter with a PS3 and a Wii.

First impression: the PS3 is superdupermega BIG. The Wii’s small, and cute.

On the price: I asked how much the PS3 was. The lady told me it was being sold at a whopping P60,000 a unit ($1,200!!!). After hearing that, I immediately left the store. I wasn’t able to ask how much the Wii was due to shock.

It was said that in America, the PS3 would be sold at around $399-$599 for the 20GB and 60GB respectively.

Why is it that here in the Philippines, they are selling it at twice the suggested price?!

And I thought P3000/iPod unit was big.

    The Wii costs PhP 30,000. Or about $600.

    In the US, it’s only $200.
