Yes, but it wasn't the main reason that those consoles sold well

You have to admit, it did help a bit

I admit it, it did. But the PS2 wasn't the cheapest console, and it broke records. The GC was the cheapest, and it didn't sell nearly as much as the PS2. It was Sony's genius marketing which I mentioned, the perfectly timed price cuts, along with the fact that it had a head start, a library of games going back to the PS1, and the fact that the PS2 acted as a cheap DVD player, were what made the PS2 sell so well.

How much was the PS2 when it first came out? sweatdrop

It started out at 300 dollars. But I remember when it was first released an auction that I saw on Ebay started off as 2 cents was up to 2000 dollars, and still had a while left on it. It was insane.
