The core and priemium were just poorly seperated; the Core should have cost $300, came with the 512MB memory card, component cable and whatever promotion was happening with the Priemium ... On top of that the Core should match the Priemium's price reductions untill it became impossible ...
Hypothetically speaking if the XBox 360 Core was $250 with everything you need to play games I could see it being an alternative to the Wii for a lot of people; at $270 + $50 + Cable makes the XBox 360 Core not that appealing.
