OK. There is no way, even with die shrinks, that MS can sell a version of the 360 (with more performance and features than the Wii even in the core model) at less than the Wii's price. If they did, Nintendo would drop the price to match them and must still then maker a larger profit on the $199 Wii than Microsoft would do on a $199 360. |
How many times do people need to say this? Nintendo will not lower the price of the Wii until it stops selling out, no matter how low the PS3 or 360 go. It makes no sense. |
I didn't mean they would lower it, I meant that Microsoft cannot afford to make this price drop even with the 65nm process. because if they could Nintendo must be making ridiculous amounts on the Wii. There's rumours of a 45nm shrink though. |
The original guesstimate for manufacturing cost for the wii was well under 150 dollars per console. Figure they will attain efficiencies in production by now they may be approaching 100 bucks or less per system.... |
According to GotFrag it was 158 USD. So yes they could mostpossible be down to atleast 120-130 USD. (Just that tools should be paid of after this year should lower the price significant.
