From a business perspective, it makes no sense whatsoever. The system is selling unbelievbably well... it's pretty much unprecedented for a portable. Furthermore, the only competition -- the PSP -- is getting stomped by the DS Lite as it is. Nintendo has no reason to drop the price when they're raking in the cash at the ridiculous rate they are now. Maybe in Fall or Winter of 2008 or something... but right now, it's priced reasonably and Nintendo has no reason to consider a price drop.
