"History shows that the majority of console sales happen after this price point has been breached, and we're well positioned to take advantage of this mass market pricing."
"Plus, with well over five million consoles sold to date the combination of the strongest games line up this Christmas, really innovative entertainment experiences and these groundbreaking new price points will ensure we continue to enjoy fantastic momentum in Europe," said Lewis.
