To be fair, it was all speculation. Sony never gave any official word on the content of the announcement and yet the media assumed it would be in regards to the PS3, hence the quotes in the OP.

Not really odd at all. There is talk of the Wii actually going up in price in the UK, because the £ is worth next to **** all

True, but I don't see Sony or MS announcing a price increase either. Nintendo are doing it solely because they know they can get away with it. Which is perfectly fine, that's business.

Come on now, it was the gaming community that hyped this up, not Sony.

And silly fellas in here going OTT with their ideas.

Well i can say i was right regards a price cut though thought the PSP would have got a mention too with the DSi launching soon.
"2. Giving the timing of 31st March and the new business year starting in April id assume its money involved and possibly price cuts."

See i am a smart ass afterall

But the whole world got to hear about it.

Given the current econmic conditions, I thought a PS3 price cut was unlikely. The pound has become weaker meaning that Sony in Japan get less money for each console sold in the UK. Nintendo even put up their trade prices for the Wii, so at least Sony didn't do that.

Plus the PS3 still seems to be selling well according to VGchartz, roughly the same as the Xbox 360.
