By the time Nintendo bothers to release a system technology would have moved on so much that they could build a system that was cheaper, faster and with Blu Ray when compared to the PS3.
Consider -> DDR3, GDDR5 -> 60GB Sec bandwidth on a 128 bit bus compared to 25GB or something?
They could use a 4x Blu Ray drive instead of a 2x and they wouldn't need that HDD which will cost Sony at least $30 for the life of the system.
Current GPUs such as the HD 4670 come with 512MB GDDR3 ram (Same as 360) with twice the texturing and 3x the shader power for $80 RETAIL!
Flash will become a viable storage method.
So the PS3 will always be expensive really... 
Tease.
