One of the main reasons so many companies have been moving towards IBM for their embedded solutions is because IBM has designed their processors in a modular way so that they can be highly customized.
That's not the case with regard to the Broadway chip. The PS3 Cell is also basically as for some other products, other than one SPE being disabled for the PS3. Of course a lot R&D went into the Cell, unlike for the Broadway chip, but it's in Sony's interest to see as much mass production of the PS3 Cell as possible (like used for servers and super computers, this to trigger production cost reductions).
If Nintendo doubled the on chip cache on the Broadway processor
64 KB L1 cache (32 KB instruction cache, 32 KB data cache) and 256 KB L2 cache.

Haven't you asked that question before?
