  Heading:	<a href="http://squarehaven.com/news/2003/04/10/Xbox-prices-down-in-Europe-Nintendo-blames-MS-fear-for-Wind-Waker">Xbox prices down in Europe; Nintendo blames MS fear for Wind Waker</a><br/>Yasuhiro Minagawa today proved Nintendo's continuing lack of ability to "get it", stating that the Xbox pricedrop to $200 in Europe (to be brought over to the US soon after) was "for fear of the upcoming Legend of Zelda release". He went on to say that Nintendo was convinced that good games are more effective at selling consoles than price drops. But if that's the case, what about the recent gigantic sales increase when Dixons and Argos dropped prices as low as $130 in the UK?
