If you look at how money hungry Nintendo is (Mem Card 59. Development fees) it makes me wonder why they would drop the price like that.
Gamecube, any way you look at it, has the price advantage. They should just test the waters with thier normal price, and if GCN does have problems competing drop it. But I don't see it having a problem if it's still the cheapest, so what difference will this make in sales?
If somebody isn't willing to spend $200 on a cube you think they are willing to spend $170 (american)?

Firstly, £40 is something like $60
I am sure that more people would buy the Gc if it was $139 instead of $199
Even if it is the cheapest, making it 'that much more cheaper' would actually interest more buyers, believe it or not.
With your referrence to development fees, incase you didn't notice, Nintendo charges the least out of the three...
