EOC Week 2: Growth Matrix

The cash cow I think is definitely the Nintendo Wii.The dog seems to be the Xbox.The star might be the Playstation3.and the question marks seems to be CellPhones like the Iphone for example.

Some of my reasoning comes from me just reading statisctics and what exactly the different video companies that are mentioned throughtout this article. "Analysts expect Sony to cut the price on its PS3 by about $100 this year, leading to price cuts by Microsoft on some of its Xbox 360 models. The PS3 starts at about $400, compared with the equivalent Xbox 360, which costs about $300. Though Nintendo has said it won't cut prices on its $250 Wii this year, it is expected to do so indirectly by bundling games with the console."
To me the resoning with that comes from the Nintendo companies not lowering their price at all, Sony lowering the price by one hundred dollars on something like the PS3, which seems to still be one of the most coveted game consoles. But thats ny reasoning as to why the PS3 is the star. While Xbox is definitely the dog with being one of the least liked game console.
The question mark is definitely to me the question mark just because everyone is keeping their eye on the cellphone companies to see what theyll be coming out with and how exactly to keep up or react to those companies.
